CHARLESTON, WV (AP) — The West Virginia Outdoor Heritage
Conservation Fund has approved grant funding for three projects
protecting 566 acres of farm and forestland.
The funding total is
just under $600,000. About two-thirds of that sum is going to the
Pendleton County Farmland Protection Board to purchase a conservation
easement on a 210-acre farm. The funding will help preserve caves that
contain an imperiled crustacean.
The Greenbrier County Farmland
Protection Board is receiving $138,275 to purchase an easement on a
95-acre farm adjacent to a stream threatened by commercial logging and a
wind farm development.
Finally, $89,000 is going to the National
Committee for the New River. It will be used to purchase an easement for
land overlooking the Greenbrier River.
