Financial assistance
There area several financial assistance programs that are designed to help defray the cost of designing and installing conservation projects. The applicability of a funding program to a particular project depends on the type of project, the location or ownership of a property, the aspect of the project for which funding is desired, or even the way in which a project is designed. The following table shows which funding programs can be applied to which types of projects. Program details can be accessed using the left navigation bar.
