This Project Grant award in the amount of $320,000.00 was provided by the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service under the Forest Stewardship Program (CFDA 10.678) to the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC). The funding will support the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law Expansion of DEC's Containerized Seedling Production program over the award period of July 1, 2024 to December 31, 2028. The project aims to promote and enable the long-term active management of non-industrial private and other non-federal forest lands in New York to sustain the multiple environmental, economic, and social values of these forest resources. The funding will enable DEC to leverage existing state, federal, and private forestry expertise to provide technical assistance, management planning, and on-the-ground implementation of sustainable forestry practices across the state.
