Town Meetings & Grants

  • Town meetings (electronic surveys) were held at the boat shows in Memphis, Nashville, Knoxville and Chattanooga that polled the boating audience on questions that affected TN's recreational boating program.
  • TWRA Announced Availability of Grants for 2010-11 Stream Clean-Up Projects. On Wed, Feb 10, 2010, the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency announces the availability of grant dollars to assist cities, schools, community organizations, civic groups, watershed organizations, and conservation groups, etc., with stream clean-up projects for the fiscal year 2010-11. The grant money could be used to buy supplies, such as rakes, work gloves, and garbage bags. In addition the funds could be used to pay disposal fees for solid waste and tire removal or to provide promotional items such as project advertisement or T-shirts and refreshments for volunteer support. Five grants, at $1,000 each, are available for each of TWRA’s four regional Aquatic Habitat Protection projects (a total of $5,000 per region). The funds will be obligated as grants, so the grantee must have a nonprofit tax number. The projects are to be completed, the money spent, and a report submitted by June 30, 2011.
