SUMMARY:LISCIF New York Press Conference
DESCRIPTION:Restore America’s Estuaries (RAE)\, the Long Island Sound Study (LISS) and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Region 2 are proud to announce that 11 proposals have been selected to fund projects aimed at enhancing sustainable communities\, promoting healthy watersheds and improving ecosystems throughout Long Island Sound. These organizations will receive grants ranging up to $100\,000 from EPA through the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law and will help meet the Justice40 Initiative goal that 40% of the overall benefits of these Federal investments flow to disadvantaged communities that are marginalized\, underserved\, and overburdened by pollution.
