  • The Galveston Bay Foundation has utilized millions of dollars in grants from the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation and NOAA to restore wetlands in the Dollar Bay and Moses Lake regions. These efforts, including the construction of breakwaters and marsh terraces, aim to mitigate the effects of sea level rise—which has risen over 27 inches in the area over 120 years—and protect communities from storm surges. The project also demonstrates how federal investment can catalyze private land conservation, though the requirement for local matching funds remains a barrier for some underserved communities.
