USDA\u2019s Natural Resources Conservation Service invites potential conservation partners to submit project applications for federal funding through the Regional Conservation Partnership Program<\/a>. NRCS will award up to $360 million dollars to locally driven, public-private partnerships that improve the nation\u2019s water quality, combat drought, enhance soil health, support wildlife habitat and protect agricultural viability.<\/p>\n

Partners may request between $250,000 and $10 million in RCPP funding through this fundingevent. Partners are expected to offer value-added contributions to amplify the impact of RCPP funding in an amount equal or greater to the NRCS investment.<\/p>\n

Eligible lead partners are encouraged to apply. Funding is open to private industry, non-government organizations, Indian tribes, state and local governments, water districts and universities, among others. The full list of eligible entities is available in the RCPP funding announcement.<\/p>\n

First authorized by the 2014 Farm Bill, RCPP has combined nearly $1 billion in NRCS investments with close to $2 billion in non-NRCS dollars to implement conservation practices across the nation. There are 336 active RCPP projects that have engaged more than 2,000 partners. Successful RCPP projects provide innovative conservation solutions, leverage partner contributions and offer impactful and measurable outcomes.<\/p>\n

USDA is now accepting proposals for RCPP through the RCPP portal. Proposals are due by Nov. 4, 2020.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
