A. The citizen or organization applying for the grant would be required to contribute at least 50 percent of the cost of the project. In-kind contributions such as supplies and labor would count towards the 50 percent.
Q. What kinds of projects would be funded?

Cool. So I can claim that awhile back, before they put in my subdivision, there was a pond on my land, so I can go dig a pond in my back yard (the labor) for the ducks (restoration), and the Federal government will pay me for it.
