This is a $1,462,849.97 Formula Grant awarded by the U.S. Department of the Interior Fish and Wildlife Service to the South Dakota Department of Game, Fish & Parks Wildlife Division. The grant is funded under the Pittman-Robertson Wildlife Restoration and Basic Hunter Education program (CFDA 15.611), which provides funding to state wildlife agencies for wildlife conservation, habitat restoration, and public recreation initiatives. The grant supports the Division's management and maintenance of 723 Game Production Areas (GPAs) and Water Access Areas (WAAs) comprising 271,034 acres across South Dakota. Specific activities funded include managing wildlife habitats, conducting wildlife population surveys, and maintaining public access for hunting, fishing, and other outdoor recreation. The Division is responsible for paying property taxes on these GPA and WAA lands, and this grant helps offset those costs. The award period runs from April 1, 2025 to March 31, 2026.
