This $112,342.00 Formula Grant award from the U.S. Department of the Interior Fish and Wildlife Service, under the CFDA program "Wildlife Restoration and Basic Hunter Education and Safety", provides funding to the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands (CNMI) Department of Lands and Natural Resources (DLNR) to support the agency's Division of Fish and Wildlife Geographic Information System (GIS) program. The GIS program serves as a data management system for processing, organizing, analyzing, and archiving biological data for wildlife conservation projects across the CNMI islands. This includes data collection, spatial analysis, and technical support for permit reviews, rare species surveys, habitat monitoring, and other initiatives to assess and manage species populations, mitigate habitat loss, and guide land development decisions. The grant funding will enable the DLNR to maintain critical GIS infrastructure and staff capacity to continue providing these technical services in support of wildlife conservation and environmental protection efforts in the CNMI.
