National Fish Passage Program
The National Fish Passage Program (NFPP) is a voluntary program that provides direct technical assistance and financial assistance in the form of cooperative agreements and grants to partners to provide fish (and other aquatic organisms) passage and restore aquatic connectivity for the benefit of federal
trust resources.
The NFPP is delivered through more than 65 Fisheries and Aquatic Conservation (FAC) Field Offices across all States and territories.
FAC staff coordinates with project partners, stakeholders and other Service programs to identify and collaboratively implement projects within Regional priority areas.
Project work plans are developed strategically, in coordination with partners, and with substantial involvement from FAC staff.
Projects must advance our mission, promote biological diversity, and be based upon sound scientific biological principles.
FAC and Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) strategic plans inform the types of projects funded under this opportunity.
Applicants seeking funding under this program should review the program strategic plan and also contact the regional NFPP Coordinator for local FAC contacts prior to submitting an application for funding.
