Opportunity Information: Apply for F15AS00359
The Playa Conservation Initiative focuses on restoring playa wetlands, which are vital ecological features in the southern shortgrass prairie, providing essential habitat for migratory birds, including waterfowl and Sandhill Cranes. These wetlands have faced significant degradation due to sedimentation, agricultural excavation, and other alterations.
Federal, state, and non-government partners have worked on creating a decision support tool aimed at identifying and prioritizing playa conservation efforts. This initiative will specifically target the backfilling of pits on private lands in Floyd and Castro Counties, Texas. The plan is to restore playas that have established vegetation buffers and minimal siltation, allowing for hydrology restoration without the need for sediment removal.
The Playa Lakes Joint Venture led the development of the decision support tool, with contributions from the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. The award recipient will use this tool to identify suitable restoration sites and may further prioritize playas in collaboration with other conservation entities.Apply for F15AS00359
