New York Great Lakes Protection Fund Small Grants (NYGLPF)

The Great Lakes Protection Fund Small Grants Program is administered by the Great Lakes Research Consortium, in cooperation with the New York Department of Environmental Conservation and the New York Great Lakes Basin Advisory Council, with earnings that accrue from New York State’s investment in the regional Great Lakes Protection Fund. The protection fund (NYGLPF) small grants program was developed to provide “seed” money for new, cooperative approaches to researching and protecting the environmental quality of the Great Lakes.
