(CBF) to deliver technical assistance in the Pequea Creek Watershed in Pennsylvania from July 10, 2023 to June 30, 2028. The grant is funded under the USDA's Soil and Water Conservation program (CFDA 10.902), which provides conservation technical assistance to private landowners, conservation districts, tribes, and other organizations. Through this funding, CBF will assist these groups in conserving soil, water, wildlife habitats, water quality, stormwater management, and implementing agricultural best practices in the Pequea Creek Watershed. CBF has significant experience as a sub-recipient on past federal grants supporting buffer implementation, rotational grazing, green infrastructure, oyster restoration, and other conservation initiatives across the Chesapeake Bay region.
