$40,000 Available for Brook Trout Habitat Conservation Credits
August 9, 2011
Bay Bank is now seeking farm and woodland owners to enter into a minimum of 20-year contracts to protect habitat that benefits the prized brook trout. Eligible landowners will undergo a habitat assessment, agree to protect their land use “as-is” for the life of the contract, and maintain a management and monitoring plan. This funding is targeted towards Frederick, Washington, Allegany and Garrett counties. To see if you are eligible or find out more information on the program, see the Habitat Conservation page.
