Hurricane Sandy Emergency Supplemental Funding U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Facilities To Be Repaired
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service will receive $68.2 million to make repairs to 25 national wildlife refuges and three national fish hatcheries from Florida to Maine. The funds will be invested to restore facilities to their pre-Sandy condition. Projects will include debris field clean-up, rebuilding roads, trails, and other public access facilities, and restoring important ecosystems that benefit communities as well as wildlife. In many areas, the Service will restore facilities to be more resilient and withstand future storms and rising sea levels. Read the list here
