Long Point World Biosphere Reserve Receives $940,000 Grant

Posted 02 August 2011, by Ashley Degroote, CD 98.9 FM Radio (Norfolk County, Ontario), cd989.com

The Long Point World Biosphere Reserve is getting a boost from the Sustain our Great Lakes Program.

The Biosphere is one of 30 organizations receiving the 940 thousand dollar grant.

The money will go towards the improvement of aquatic connectivity and fish passage between Big Creek Marsh and Long Point Bay by installing a large culvert or eco-passage under the Long Point Causeway.

We hope to speak with someone at the Biosphere later today about the grant.
