Well what about all of this is this nothing important?
On December 3rd, President Bush signed the bill which extends for five more years a program under which the federal government leverages donations from conservationists, state wildlife agencies, sportsmen and landowners who pledge to protect wetlands throughout the United States. Many of these wetlands are vitally important to migratory waterfowl.
Since its inception in 1991, the United States government has contributed $462 million, matched by $1.3 billion in outside donations, which have been used to acquire land, establish native plants and restore waterways. President Bush, pictured here with Secretary of the Interior, Gale Norton, was joined by members of his cabinet, senators and representatives, as well as representatives of many conservation groups.
Peter Trexler commented that “we are very pleased that this administration continues to demonstrate an interest in preserving our nation’s wetlands and wildlife and were most pleased to have been invited to attend the bill signing.”
WASHINGTON, DC—The long-awaited 2002 farm bill signed into law by President George Bush today is good news for ducks and duck hunters, says Delta Waterfowl Senior Vice-President Peter Trexler.
The controversial farm bill, which will cost an estimated $173.5 billion over 6 years, re-authorizes the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) at 39.2 million acres, nearly 3 million acres more than the ceiling set by the 1996 farm bill. It also re-authorizes the Wetlands Reserve Program (WRP) at an annual enrollment of 250,000 acres and a cap of 2.275 million acres, and establishes a Grassland Reserve Program (GRP) aimed at restoring or improving 2 million acres of grasslands.
