The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources received a $390,000 Project Grant award from the US Department of Agriculture Forest Service to carry out the Wisconsin Cooperative Forest Health Protection and Forest Health Monitoring Combined Projects from June 16, 2021 through September 30, 2024.
Under the grant, the Wisconsin DNR will protect and manage non-federal forest resources in Wisconsin from damaging insects, disease, and invasive plants. They will also monitor the health of Wisconsin's forests. These efforts are part of the Forest Service's Forest Health Protection program (CFDA #10.680), which aims to safeguard forest health across non-federal lands through pest protection, technology development, and monitoring activities. The nearly $390,000 in funding will support the Wisconsin DNR's work on these cooperative forest health protection and monitoring initiatives through 2024.
