Synopsis
The SF Bay Grant Program is competitive and focuses on program priorities that make measurable progress in restoring the Bay and its watersheds. Since 2008, EPA has administered this grant program to improve water quality, clean up contaminated shorelines, restore wetlands, and implement urban stormwater treatment systems. The SF Bay Program aims to support a broad array of project types that improve ecosystem functions and address water quality impacts from nutrients, stormwater, urban pesticide use, and habitat loss.
