The Ashland FRO recently mailed an announcement to all our tribal contacts alerting them to the opening of the 2008 Tribal Wildlife Grant Program (TWG).  Our intent was to insure that tribal resource managers and biologist were alerted of this resource funding opportunity and to remind them to contact the Ashland FRO for any technical assistance they may require. 

The TWG funds will be available for grants that will benefit fish and wildlife and their habitats, including species that are not hunted or fished. Although matching funds will be considered as an indicator of tribal commitment to a project, they are not required. The maximum award under this program is $200,000.
