Description

The Public Access Program provides funding for the planning or implementation of infrastructure and amenities that support wildlife-oriented recreational access (such as hunting, fishing, hiking or wildlife viewing) and opportunities for environmental education. Special consideration may be given to projects providing these benefits to disadvantaged or historically underrepresented communities. Planning and Implementation projects are to be considered. Planning grants are intended to support the development of projects that are likely to qualify for future implementation funding under this program. Implementation grants are intended for construction or enhancement of public access facilities.
