Oregon will receive $29,680,565 in federal funding from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) to support Wildlife and Sport Fish Restoration (WSFR) projects around the state.
“These Federal investments, matched with revenue from hunting and fishing licenses, are the foundation of ODFW’s capacity to care for Oregon’s diverse fish and wildlife, according to Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife Director Debbie Colbert.
"Opportunities for win-win solutions that benefit working lands, wildlife, and communities are numerous—and we are grateful for the long-term support of hunters and anglers who have committed millions of dollars to this program for multiple generations," Colbert said. "Federal investments like these help us make a real difference for fish and wildlife conservation."
