NAWCA), the State-private-Federal
North American Wetlands Conservation
Council (Council) meets to consider
wetland acquisition, restoration,

provides matching grants to

enhancement of wetlands and
associated uplands habitats for the
benefit of all wetlands-associated
migratory birds. Project proposal due

eligibility requirements are available on
the NAWCA website at www.fws.gov/
