Category Overview
The State Lands Development and Renovation category provides funding to two state agencies to repair, renovate, and develop outdoor recreation facilities on existing recreation lands. As the popularity of outdoor recreation increases in our state, these grants help address overcrowding, ensure our outdoor amenities are safe for public use, improve visitor experience, and allow more people to enjoy our great outdoors.
Project Highlights
The Department of Fish and Wildlife will use this grant to develop the Silver Nail Lake access area near the town of Oroville, in Okanogan County. This project will provide funding for an improved access entrance, designated parking area, installation of kiosks and signs, invasive plant removal, a bank fishing pad, a hand boat launch site and installation of an ADA compliant floating fishing dock with an associated ADA access route. The primary recreation opportunity provided by this project is fishing and hand-launch boating.
