Wetland Restore

Wetland Restoration Program is a voluntary program under which the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service will restore a wet spot into a more valuable wetland. A restored wetland is not a farm pond, but a highly productive resource having one to four feet of water and a diverse mixture of wildlife habitat.
Wetland Restoration has a one-time incentive payment of 75% cost-share of the total cost for the restoration. Land may be offered as a buffer to the wetland restoration site with a ratio not to exceed 3 to 1. The buffer around the wetland acts as additional wildlife habitat.
