Fish and Wildlife

Fish and wildlife habitat measures may include stream habitat improvement and management, water level control structures, fish ladders, fish shelters, marsh development, and nesting areas for waterfowl.  These are measures installed to improve the habitat or environment for the breeding, growth, and development of water-based fish and wildlife or to provide opportunities for public use, or both.  Restoration of wetlands to benefit fish and wildlife is also included in this category.
