The EPA Region 6 Enhancing State and Tribal Program Meeting dates have changed and will now be held as a fully virtual meeting via Microsoft Teams. The new dates are Tuesday, December 2 and Wednesday, December 3, 2025, from 9am – 12:30pm mountain time each day. The National Association of Wetland Managers (NAWM) is providing logistical and facilitation support to EPA Region 6 for this meeting.
The target audience is state, Tribal, federal, regional and municipal wetland and aquatic resource program staff and managers that are interested in wetland and aquatic resource management, restoration, conservation, and protection. EPA Region 6 includes Arkansas, Louisiana, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Texas and 66 Tribal Nations.
Please note that we are actively monitoring and making adjustments as necessary given the federal government shutdown. However, we intend to hold the meeting regardless of any federal participation so that grantees can fulfill any grant requirements that include giving presentations on project deliverables.
Presentations are expected to include: projects funded through EPA Wetland Program Development Grants (WPDG); updates on Clean Water Act Section 404g (assumption); briefing on the EPA WPDG new Notice of Funding Opportunity for Region 6.
