Description

The overall intent of this program is to develop partnerships with willing private landowners in order to provide sanctuary for excess wild horses as an alternative to the current practice of long-term pasture facilities, without a Federal investment in land and a limited investment in infrastructure. In addition to ensuring the humane care and management of wild horses, each sanctuary will be marketed in a manner designed to encourage public visitation and provide opportunities for learning. Creating an eco-tourism venue will provide economic stimulation and assist communities by providing local job creation. See full announcement for project-specific objectives. This modification number 1 extends the deadline for application submissions to September 19, 2012. There are no other changes.
