IDNR Coastal Management Program Grantee Information
Congratulations on your IDNR Coastal Management Program grant! We see great potential in your project and are pleased to provide funding to support your work.
This Grantee Information webpage includes a downloadable manual for grantees and other important information and documents. Please carefully review the manual in its entirety as soon as you receive a signed grant agreement. It includes direct links to the forms and resources on this page, as well as other critical information to support grantees in managing their grants.
