Aquatic Habitat Grants
About the Program
Background
In August 2005, the City of Seattle launched a new grant program for projects benefiting aquatic habitat along Seattle waterways. The goal of the Aquatic Habitat Matching Grant program - part of Mayor Greg Nickels’ Restore Our Waters strategy to restore local waterways - is to provide incentives for individuals or groups to partner with the City to help restore aquatic habitat.
Program Goals
- • Protect/improve aquatic habitat along creek, marine, and lake receiving waters from direct impacts of stormwater runoff through the City of Seattle’s drainage system
- • Create and fund partnerships between the City and community
- • Contribute to regional species recovery and watershed protection and restoration
