The Five Star Restoration Program

A new funding opportunity exists for the Five Star/NRT Restoration 
Program. Applications are due via Easygrants (www.nfwf.org/easygrants) by

generations by providing modest financial assistance to diverse local 
partnerships for wetland, riparian, and coastal habitat restoration. The 
National Fish and Wildlife Foundation (NFWF), National Association of 
Counties (NACo), Wildlife Habitat Council (WHC), in cooperation with the 
U.S. Environ-mental Protection Agency (EPA), Southern Company, and 
Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E), are pleased to solicit

Restoration Trust (www.nfwf.org/nrt). The 2010 RFP and proposal narrative
