The Fisheries Restoration Grant Program (FRGP) was established in 1981 in response to rapidly declining populations of wild salmon and steelhead trout and deteriorating fish habitat in California. This competitive grant program has invested millions of dollars to support projects from sediment reduction to watershed education throughout coastal California. Contributing partners include federal and local governments, tribes, water districts, fisheries organizations, watershed restoration groups, the California Conservation Corps, AmeriCorps, and private landowners.The FRGP Database began in 1999 to capture and maintain data about habitat restoration projects in California benefiting anadromous fish. The database is managed California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) and funded by NOAA Fisheries and CDFW. Project locations are digitized in as much detail as possible based on the grantees maps. Where possible, the shapefile displays the individual project sites of restoration projects in the Fisheries Restoration Grant Program Database as of May each year. For more information about FRGP grants, see https://wildlife.ca.gov/Grants/FRGP/Grant-Process.This point data set provides location data for the database. The detailed grant information is in the associated "Project Data" table. They can be joined on the "Project_ID" field. There may be more than one worksite per project. Some projects did not provide individual lat/long for worksites. In those cases, the project worksite location was used for the worksites.
