News release: Application deadline approaching for new waterbird habitat program
The USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) in California is taking applications for the Migratory Bird Resurgence Initiative (MBRI). California has $500,000 available. Please call or visit your local NRCS office to apply. Due to the current compressed planting season, we have confirmed with NRCS that you can register your interest in the opportunity with just a phone call by May 24, but then you will still need to sign your application in person by May 31.
