Under WAFWA’s Oil & Gas Candidate Conservation Agreement with Assurances (CCAA) for the lesser prairie chicken, new land enrollment is now being accepted into the conservation program.

Enrollment Overview

WAFWA is offering a cost-share incentive under a voluntary 10-year agreement to implement a grassland restoration plan designed specifically for your property. Restoration plans are designed to maximize habitat value while improving the long-term sustainability goals for the property.

Priority is given to properties that could benefit from cost-effective habitat restoration, such as mesquite or red cedar removal, reclamation of inactive well pads, utility lines or roads, and where cropland/fallow fields can be restored.

Private landowners interested in conservation that have at least 160 acres located within a Conservation Priority Area may apply!
