Amador County - The Sierra Nevada Conservancy has updated its Current Funding Opportunites page on their website. The list, which is updated monthly, includes funding opportunities, workshops, and resources specific to the Sierra region. The updated list includes ten new funding sources, webinars on USDA Rural Development renewable energy and business and cooperative programs; free classes for small business employers; an updated schedule for funding webinars and workshops; information on IRS requirements for nonprofit organizations; and registering interest in land donations from the Stewardship Council. Also on the site are 24 previously-listed opportunities that are still current, as well as information and other resources for potential grant applicants. The newly-listed funding sources include the following topic areas: support for artistic creativity and innovativeness and to encourage making the arts more widely available in underserved communities; funding for bicycle parks, paths, trails, BMX facilities and large scale advocacy initiatives; funding for public water system facilities which include sources, treatment, distribution, and storage in both the preconstruction and construction phases; land acquisition that conserves important habitat for fish, wildlife, and plants; the Sierra Nevada meadow restoration; National, Regional, State, and local energy efficiency programming through market-based approaches in delivery and design to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in homes and businesses; small business innovation research on agricultural problems including rural development, marketing and trade, air, water, and soil; animal production and protection; plant production and protection; food science and nutrition; biofuel and biobased products; the preservation of art, historical documents, and artifacts held in small to mid-size museums, libraries, and archives. Topics also include threats to biodiversity such as global climate change, loss of species and habitat destruction, toxins in the environment, waste generation, air pollution, and funding for recreational trails and trail-related projects for both motorized and non-motorized opportunities. New information, opportunities, and revisions are expected to be updated in late August. The Sierra Nevada Conservancy initiates, encourages, and supports efforts that improve the environmental, economic, and social well-being of the Sierra Nevada Region, its communities, and the citizens of California.
