Access to the Great Lakes Fishery
Funding Priorities
and Guidelines
The
Great Lakes Fishery Trust (GLFT) funds capital improvement
projects that improve or create new tribal and/or
shore-based recreational access to fish for Great Lakes species.
Proposals will be evaluated according to the GLFT's
Tribal and Recreational Fishing Access Grant Guidelines.
Do not use this application
if your project involves the acquisition of property.
For more information and the request for proposals specific
to land acquisition projects, click
here. While projects that include property acquisition
have different proposal requirements, the application deadline
is the same as the Access to the Great Lakes Fishery deadline.
Who Can Apply?
Proposals are only accepted from educational,
governmental, tribal, and nonprofit institutions with a 501(c)(3)
designation from the IRS.
Fishing Access Application Deadline
and Materials
Applications will be accepted until
5:00 PM on September 9, 2008 and
must be submitted through the GLFT
eGRANT system. The eGRANT system will guide you
through the application process. You will be required to input
answers into fields and upload certain information as PDF
files. If you do not have the software to create or merge
documents into a single PDF file,
we recommend you visit the Adobe
Acrobat website.
If you are unable to use the eGRANT system and/or you have
further questions about the proposal process, please contact
Shivaugn Rayl Andrews at sandrews@glft.org or (517) 371-7468.
All applicants will be notified of the board decision in
mid-November. Grant awards will be available to successful
applicants immediately upon formal action by the board.
Funded Projects
Information about GLFT-funded access projects

but completed by Detroit Edision as a part of the Settlement
