About this file

This document is a series of public awareness materials promoting Wildlife and Sport Fish Restoration (WSFR) funding programs. The materials are informational brochures designed to educate the public about how federal excise taxes and state licensing fees support conservation efforts and public recreational facilities.

The brochures explain three primary funding mechanisms: (1) federal excise taxes on fishing equipment and a portion of motorboat fuel taxes that support sport fish restoration, including 9,000+ boating access and fishing areas nationwide; (2) manufacturer-paid federal excise taxes on firearms, ammunition, and archery equipment combined with state hunting license fees that fund target shooting range construction, maintenance, and expansion; and (3) combined federal excise taxes on firearms, ammunition, fishing and archery equipment, plus fuel taxes from small engines and motorboats, and state hunting and fishing license fees that support acquisition and maintenance of public lands for fish and wildlife-related activities. The materials emphasize partnership between industry, state, and federal entities in delivering conservation outcomes and highlight public benefits including habitat protection, aquatic environment preservation, clean water initiatives, and access to recreational facilities. Each brochure includes QR codes directing readers to additional information and features visuals depicting boating, target shooting, and wilderness recreation activities.

These vital conservation efforts will ensure that the outdoor activities you love now will be enjoyed for generations to come.

Together, industry, state and federal partners make conservation happen. Scan the QR code at right to learn more.

Thanks to manufacturer-paid federal excise taxes on firearms, ammunition, and archery equipment, along with state hunting license fees, we can build, maintain, and expand target shooting ranges, ensuring everyone has a fantastic place to hone their skills. Every shot downrange is an investment in the future of safe, secure target shooting facilities to enhance public opportunities.
