About this award

The Department of the Interior Fish and Wildlife Service Region 4 awarded the Kentucky Department of Fish & Wildlife Resources $800,000 on April 1, 2026, under the Sport Fish Restoration program (CFDA 15.605) for statewide fisheries investigations during the 2026–27 fiscal year, with performance concluding March 31, 2027.

The Sport Fish Restoration program provides funding to state agencies to restore, conserve, manage, and enhance sport fish populations and public access to sport fisheries. The program is financed through excise taxes on motorboat fuel, electric motors, fishing equipment, and import duties on fishing tackle and yachts, with revenues apportioned to state agencies by a legislatively established formula.

Work is performed in Kentucky. The Kentucky Department of Fish & Wildlife Resources, a state government agency headquartered in Frankfort and operating under the Commonwealth of Kentucky, receives the award as the ultimate recipient. The department operates as a prime recipient without subcontractors on federal awards. Recent Sport Fish Restoration awards to this recipient have funded fisheries district management across seven districts and two fish hatcheries, operation and maintenance of over 160 boating ramps and 30 fishing access sites, fish propagation and stocking, and aquatic habitat restoration.
