Fiscal Year 2007 NRCS Funding Request
Partner agencies and groups are committed to providing at least a
one-to-one
match with WHIP Financial Assistance (FA) funds for projects throughout the
state. Montana NRCS would also continue to fund the Contribution Agreement
with the Montana Department of Fish, Wildlife and Parks to retain the shared
area biologist position located in the Glasgow Area Office. With this
existing agreement the agency would continue to coordinate the existing
partnership of WHIP projects throughout Montana, in cooperation with
existing staff and the Montana Department of Fish, Wildlife and Parks.
Fiscal Year 2007 NRCS Funding Request
| Technical Assistance (TA) |
Financial Assistance (FA) |
| $121,000 |
$550,000 |
This funding request is based on implementation of 10 projects in each of the
three WHIP Focus Areas at an average of about $20,000 in WHIP FA funds per
project. Partner contributions will match WHIP cost-share one-to-one. In the
event that project costs average less than $20,000, the goal is to implement
more projects and maintain the one-to-one partner match.
