This data set shows the locations of grants awarded by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife's (CDFW) Watershed Restoration Grants Branch (WRGB). The Watershed Restoration Grants Branch (WRGB) administers grant funding and oversees CDFW's Cutting the Green Tape Program to deliver science-informed grants for restoration of ecological function and conservation, and assesses the success of those efforts at a large-scale. Grant programs administered by WRGB include restoration programs funded through bonds (Proposition 1 and Proposition 68), the Fisheries Restoration Grant Program, Nature Based Solutions, and restoration programs supporting water and habitat resiliency to drought and climate challenges. FRGP purpose is to restore anadromous salmonid habitat to ensure the survival and protection of the species in coastal areas of California. CDFW now accepts concept proposals on an ongoing basis for its Restoration Grant Programs. This dataset was created to capture the locations of all CDFW WRGB grant funded projects in the State of California. The dataset enables geographic analyses of projects, aiding analysis of past trends and planning of future restoration work.
