The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) announces the anticipated availability of grant funds under the Florida Boating Improvement Program (FBIP). Availability of funding is contingent upon an appropriation by the Florida legislature for the 2009-2010 fiscal year.
Eligible projects must serve the needs of boaters and boating-related activities on coastal and inland waters within the State of Florida. Eligible participants include county governments, municipalities and other governmental entities of the State of Florida. Applications for grant funding for fiscal year 2009-2010 will be accepted beginning February 2, 2009. Applications must be received by FWC before close of business on April 2, 2009. Applications received after the deadline will be ineligible for consideration.
