Environment grant applications extended

Environment Enhancement grant applications extended

Landowners and groups working to protect and enhance native biodiversity in Canterbury have another two weeks to apply for financial assistance through Environment Canterbury’s Environment Enhancement Fund. The closing date for applications has been extended from the end of August to Friday September 14, 2007.

Applicants can receive up to $5,000 for a project that contributes to the region's indigenous biodiversity.
This year the fund has approximately $200,000 available for grants - $150,000 from Environment Canterbury’s Environment Enhancement Fund, and another $50,000 from the Honda TreeFund.

The Environment Enhancement Fund provides grants for usually no more than 50 percent of a project’s total cost.  Application forms and further information on the programme are available from Environment Canterbury’s website on www.ecan.co.nz/eef   or by calling Customer Services, 0800 EC INFO (0800 324 636).
