National Natural Resources Conservation Foundation (NNRCF)
— A nonprofit private organization established by the FAIR Act of 1996
to promote and fund innovative solutions to conservation problems through
effective partnerships. The Foundation can accept gifts and raise money. The
NNRCF will conduct research, undertake educational activities, support
demonstration projects, and make grants to state and local governments and
nonprofit organizations. Appropriations are authorized at $1 million per year
for 1997-99, but no appropriations have been provided and the Foundation is not
yet operational. Similar foundations have been created for several other natural
resource areas.
