Overview
This renewal grant will support the Nature Conservancy’s work to increase public funding for private land conservation in the West. Increased development pressures put ecologically sensitive ranches and other private land at risk, requiring that additional resources be available to protect the most ecologically important, vulnerable properties. This and a separate grant on this docket, to the Trust for Public Land, are complimentary.
