The Wetland Reserve Program is a competitive program using a combination of statewide and county ranking systems to fund the most environmentally beneficial projects.   The Wetlands Reserve Program is a voluntary program that protects, restores and enhances wetlands, while maximizing wildlife benefits. The WRP reverse auction will pay landowners to establish wetlands in exchange for perpetual or 30 year easements. In exchange for the easements, landowners may receive up to 100 percent of their accepted offer for the enrolled land plus the cost of approved wetland restoration practices.
