The PFW Program can reject projects that do not fit with regional strategic plans or priorities. To get funding, PFW projects must be on private lands."Private lands" means any properties not owned by the state or federal government. This includes tribal lands, Hawaiian homelands, cities, municipalities, non-governmental properties, and private properties. Groups with 501(c)(3) status should have proof of their status from the Internal Revenue Service. Tribal applicants may be required to provide an authorizing tribal resolution.The Program seeks projects year-round. Program staff work with applicants to find common conservation goals. We require that all interested applicants contact their local PFW staff before submitting an application.
