The regulations implement statutory provisions designed to provide competitive grants to eligible Indian Tribes; State or local units of government; non- governmental organizations; and individuals. The purpose of CIG is to stimulate the development and adoption of innovative conservation approaches and technologies while leveraging the Federal investment in environmental enhancement and protection, in conjunction with agricultural production.
