NATIONAL FISH HABITAT ACTION PLAN
EASTERN BROOK TROUT JOINT VENTURE
FY2009 CALL FOR PROJECT PROPOSALS
APPLICATION ANNOUNCEMENT
June 20, 2008
The Eastern Brook Trout Joint Venture is requesting project proposals to restore and
conserve habitat necessary to support existing populations of brook trout that are healthy
and productive and to restore habitat that has historically sustained brook trout
populations. Applications must be received in electronic and hard copy format as
outlined below by COB Wednesday, October 1, 2008. Proposals received after the
deadline will not be considered or retained.
Federal funding available under the National Fish Habitat Action Plan through the U.S.
Fish and Wildlife Service will be used to fund the top ranked proposals. All proposed
projects should be developed in coordination with the nearest U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service Fisheries Resource Office. The funding amount and time of availability is unknown
at this time. You will be notified of your project’s regional ranking score and funding
status as that information becomes available. Proposals should range from approximately
$10,000 to $50,000 in grant request and must have a minimum of a 1:1 match from other
sources. These funds can only be used for on-the-ground habitat conservation and
improvement projects and related design and monitoring activities. They can not be used
for acquisition in fee or easement. Ranking criteria by which all proposals will be
scored can be found at www.easternbrooktrout.net.
