Celebrating Habitat…A Healthy Legacy

Fisheries and Habitat Conservation (FHC) is proud to announce 2005 as the year of habitat! “Celebrating Habitat…A Healthy Legacy” is an initiative that will highlight the outstanding habitat protection and restoration efforts currently under way within FHC, increasing the awareness of partners, colleagues and Congress of the significant contributions FHC employees and their partners make every day to improve the quality of life of the American people.

A Schedule of Events highlighting habitat-related activities within FHC will be released in early FY05. It will include opportunities for volunteers to participate in local habitat restoration projects, site visits to successful habitat restoration projects, presentations at professional society meetings, and workshops that introduce participants to grants and services provided by FHC programs. To get the latest information on the celebration, e-mail Carol_Pollio@fws.gov or call 703/358-2467.
