Description

Overall Goals: These funds will help jump start a new, multi-partner driven playa conservation initiative by providing funding for playa restoration conservation priorities among partners of playas in the Texas Panhandle. The conservation delivery activities within these high value clusters is addressed through this proposal; playa wetlands will be restored by primarily backfilling pits on private lands, but other restoration actions will be considered when appropriate including removing sediment and planting native grass buffers.
