FY-2002 WRP Contract Information

The following two maps display information on Wetlands Reserve Program (WRP) contracts that were enrolled in fiscal year 2002.

This voluntary program provides landowners financial incentives and technical assistance for converting frequently flooded, marginal agricultural land to its former wetland condition. Through WRP, the Natural Resources Conservation Service provides technical assistance to landowners to address wetland, wildlife habitat, water quality, and related natural resource concerns on their land in an environmentally sound and cost-effective manner. In FY-2002, NRCS allocated $275 million to enroll nearly 200,000 acres into the program. Click on each map's Data link for detailed information.

Supporting data is available in Adobe Acrobat format.
