2012 Texas Outdoor Recreation Plan Comments Due
Event category:Â General [1]Friday, June 22, 2012 (All day) The Texas Parks and Wildlife Department (TPWD) seeks public comment on the draft of the 2012 Texas Outdoor Recreation Plan (TORP) which identifies outdoor recreation issues of statewide importance, and acts as a guide on how to best administer Texas’ apportionment of the federal Land and Water Conservation Funds.
This plan is required in order to maintain state eligibility to continue receiving funds through the LWCF State and Local Assistance Program; the only federal source of funds partnering with states and local governments that is solely dedicated to protecting conservation and recreation lands for future generations of Americans.
Public feedback has been obtained in the development of the TORP through a variety of surveys. The draft is available for comment until June 22, 2012 at http://www.tpwd.state.tx.us/business/grants/ [2].
Comments regarding the 2012 TORP draft can be sent to rec.grants@tpwd.state.tx.us [3]. For more information, please contact Local Park Grants Manager, Dana Lagarde at (512) 389-8175.
