#SaveLWCF to Protect Our Region's Treasured Places

The Land and Water Conservation Fund protects invaluable natural landscapes and waterways that serve as important havens for biodiversity and outdoor recreation. The fund is sourced not by taxpayer dollars, rather by royalties paid by energy companies to access off-shore drill sites ($900 million annually). The fund is scheduled to expire on September 30, 2018, unless Congress takes action.
