Description
The National Coastal Wetlands Conservation Grant Program was created to acquire, restore, and enhance wetlands in coastal areas through competitive matching grants to eligible State agencies.

Revenues are deposited into and appropriated from the Sport Fish Restoration and Boating Trust Fund.
