Be an OHV Champion and Comment on CA OHV Grant Process by April 3 Deadline

Stop and Make a Grant Comment

QWR is committed to the collaborative process as a strategy to bring land agency staff and the trail-based recreation community together with a common goal of both protecting resources and providing a high-quality outdoor experience.

In CA and other states with an OHV grant program, part of that collaboration is weighing in with comments on agency grant proposals.

The public review and comment period for the CA OHV 2016/17 Grants and Cooperative Agreements Program ends at 5:00pm (Pacific Standard Time) on Monday, April 3, 2017. Agency staff have worked hard to prepare these grant submissions and now it is our turn to comment on the various grant proposals before the April 3 deadline. 

Don’t feel you have to comment on every grant.  Just focus on the areas where you recreate.  Also, don’t forget to comment on any LE or Sheriff grants that are submitted.  LE is an important part of managed OHV recreation in the 21st Century.   In addition there are non-profit applicants that submit grants… feel free to comment on those.

QWR believes the quality of our trail future is directly proportional to the quality of the collaborative process/stakeholder involvement on your Forest or BLM unit.  It is time for OHVers to do their part.
