EPA’s Tribal Water & Natural Resources Conservation Guide aims to provide resources to Tribal environmental programs about federal assistance opportunities that can support Tribally led efforts to protect and restore waters, protect air quality, protect wildlife and habitat, prepare for climate change and natural hazards, steward lands and support and engage Tribal communities. Sections include:

  • An introduction to federal assistance for new Tribal staff
  • Quick reference tables highlighting Tribal-specific funding and technical assistance programs
  • 10+ Tribal case studies highlighting how Tribal programs have completed conservation projects with federal assistance
  • Examples of federal planning frameworks and tools

The web page also includes a federal funding program inventory as a downloadable Excel Workbook that contains basic information about 150+ federal funding programs that can support Tribal conservation work.
