Delta Ecosystem Programs Delta Conservation Framework Multi-agency, 25-year conservation framework for the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta, Yolo Bypass and Suisun Marsh Fish Restoration Program Agreement (FRPA) CDFW-DWR agreement that addresses specific habitat restoration requirements of multiple agencies and projects in order to protect Delta smelt and Chinook salmon Delta Fish Agreement CDFW-DWR agreement to provide for offsetting fishery impacts caused by the diversion of water at the head of the California Aqueduct Interagency Ecological Program (IEP) State and federal agency consortium that integrates ecological data to manage the Delta ecosystem and water flows Franks Tract Restoration Feasibility Study Feasibility study was completed in June 2018 as part of the Delta Smelt Resiliency Strategy. Grant Programs Cannabis Restoration Grant Program Supports projects that restore anadromous salmonid habitat in watersheds most heavily impacted by Cannabis cultivation Ecosystem Restoration Program Multi-agency effort aimed at improving and increasing aquatic and terrestrial habitats and ecological function in the Delta and its tributaries Fisheries Restoration Grant Program Supports salmon and steelhead habitat enhancement projects Greenhouse Gas Reduction Program Supports projects that restore coastal wetlands, Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta wetlands, mountain meadows, and desert ecosystems to achieve greenhouse gas emission reductions and provide other co-benefits Proposition 1 Restoration Grant Programs Supports multi-benefit ecosystem and watershed protection and restoration projects Proposition 68 Restoration Grant Programs Support Rivers and Streams, Southern California Steelhead, and Fish and wildlife.
