FYI the entire list of projects proposed by National Fish Habitat Partnership to U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service was approved, pending funding.

What does this mean for me?

That means one more step is done and looking good for our RFHP-supported projects. However, the full amount of funding must still be approved through the Federal budgetmaking process. RFHP expects a similar amount of funding as last year as our performance as a partnership has remained high.

What's next?

We must wait on the Federal budget to be finalized.
