| Desc | Center for Western Lands (CWL): Responsible management of federal public-lands and conservation of important backcountry areas are the main reasons sportsmen experience high-quality hunting and fishing in these areas. These intact public lands offer key habitat for numerous fish and wildlife species, including wild trout and salmon, upland game birds, mule deer, elk, pronghorn and wild sheep. Despite their importance, however, these places and the resources they sustain are facing mounting development pressures across the West from traditional and renewable energy development, transmission corridors and poorly managed off-road vehicle use. These issues form the core of the TRCP's Center for Western Lands. The TRCP's Backcountry Working Group is working with individual sportsmen, local groups and businesses, western governors and national decision makers to ensure that sportsmen's priorities are considered as the future conservation and management of our backcountry areas are determined. Clear conservation successes were achieved in 2015 and 2016:- The Bureau of Land Management final rule with changes to its national land-use planning regulations through "Planning 2.0" were announced on December 1st. This is a result of a multi-year effort from TRCP to generate support for these changes and reflect our priorities including the establishment of clear provisions that would require the conservation of wildlife migration corridors and intact habitats. TRCP is currently actively defending this policy victory against rollback from the new Congress seeking to overturn previous administration rules.- The BLM finalized formal guidance for "backcountry conservation areas," a sportsmen-proposed land use tool that would provide balanced conservation management for intact habitats on public lands. We are taking steps to educate the incoming administration on the value of this policy to ensure that it is not stopped and reversed. A business sign-on letter in support of BCAs of more than 200 businesses will be delivered in early March 2017.- Additionally, in 2016 the BLM finalized a renewable energy leasing rule for wind and solar that will establish a market based leasing process for renewable energy development on public lands. We believe that this leasing rule will help to ensure balanced development on public lands as renewable energy development increases.2016 also saw the continuation and escalation of our campaign to thwart efforts at the state and national level to dispose of, sell or transfer federal public lands. The TRCP's "Sportsmen's Access" campaign which is supported by a coalition of 31 hunting and fishing organizations and businesses. In 2016, we expanded the campaign and resources on SportsmensAccess.org to include state-based fact sheets, county commission resolutions supporting public lands, and a "whiteboard" video explaining the issue and used in social media promotion. The ongoing petition associated with this campaign has gained approximately 52,000 signatures and delivered more than 463,000 letters. In addition, the TRCP featured the Sportsmen's Access petition at our Western Media Summit in Fort Collins, Colorado in June 2016. There, petition names were presented to official representatives of the Clinton and Trump presidential campaigns. TRCP's successful engagement on the sage grouse issue in 2015 and 2016 has made us a go-to resource on the Endangered Species Act. The TRCP's Senior Scientist was invited to participate in several workshops on species conservation and the Endangered Species Act hosted by the Western Governors Association as well as by MT Governor's office to participate in state-wide sage grouse mitigation program. As a result of the many grassroots, media, lobbying efforts by TRCP in defense of sage grouse conservation plans, anti-sage grouse riders were successfully kept out of the National Defense Authorization Act as of December 1. The TRCP Western team organized a business sign-on letter signed by 105 national and local sporting businesses to Congressional leadership opposing the inclusion of any language in any legislation that would undo the federal sage grouse conservation plans.Finally, the TRCP Idaho sportsmen value mapping project was completed in 2016. This project will arm conservation groups and government agencies with information about areas in Idaho that have been identified by sportsmen as most important for hunting and fishing. Over the course of the project, TRCP completed 20 individual mapping events and enlisted 400+ sportsmen and women to participate in the mapping project.Center for Agricultural and Private Lands (CAL): The TRCP Center for Agricultural and Private Lands actively engages with our partners and policymakers to conserve important habitat, sustain fish and wildlife and secure opportunities for sportsmen to access and enjoy these quintessentially American landscapes through engagement on U.S. agricultural and other private lands policies. In particular, we want to ensure that implementation of the Farm Bill that passed in 2014 maximizes the conservation benefits of that legislation. In 2016, we pivoted to proactively planning for the next Farm Bill that will likely be crafted in 2017 and 2018. TRCP is working with our partners to develop principles that will shape our strategies and policy requirements going forward.TRCP and our partners Pheasants Forever, Quail Forever, National Deer Alliance, Ducks Unlimited, Delta Waterfowl, Izaak Walton League of America, National Wildlife Federation, Wildlife Mississippi, and Association of Fish and Wildlife Agencies have joined together to call for a stronger CRP in the next Farm Bill. To support that effort in 2016, we launched CRPworks.org, a website promoting the Conservation Reserve Program. Our ultimate goal with the campaign is to collect signatures of sportsmen and other supporters who know that CRP works - for sportsmen, wildlife, and the agricultural community. A petition will be delivered to Congress as we enter negotiations for the 2018 Farm Bill to show that there is demand for the program. So far, over 3,300 sportsmen and other supporters have signed the petition.In October 2016, the TRCP hosted a meeting of our Agriculture and Wildlife Working Group at the Max McGraw Wildlife Foundation campus in Illinois. The three-day meeting will help the AWWG's six subcommittees (working lands; easements; partnerships; CRP; forestry; and crop insurance) craft a cohesive sportsman-conservationist platform for the 2018 Farm Bill, which we will be prepared to promote and share with Congress early in 2017. Participants at the AWWG Farm Bill Summit represented 13 of the 21 groups which make up the AWWG.Center for Water Resources (CWR): The CWR has a policy agenda developed in cooperation with the Water Working Group, through stakeholder outreach, and with feedback from the TRCP Policy Council. The two main pillars of the Center agenda are (1) to promote federal water conservation funding; (2) to improve the engagement of the sporting community in federal decision making related to water resources management and, specifically, around solutions to current and impending water supply challenges; and 3) educate and generate support for restoring protections that have been lost for our nation's wetlands, streams, lakes and headwaters. On November 17, 2016, the US Department of the Interior (DOI) released an updated guidance document for its WaterSMART grant program. In the updated guidance, DOI separated out a distinct grant opportunity for small projects and also created a new water marketing grant pool. The TRCP engaged sportsmen not only by sending a letter to the administration in support of these new criteria, but also by posting on its website, an effort that generated supportive individual comments from 458 sportsmen and women. In total, partners and sportsmen/conservation organizations submitted over 7,500 comments to the Bureau of Reclamation in support of the WaterSMART criteria change.Also in 2016, TRCP's government relations staff worked with partners on the Water Resources Development Act (WRDA), which passed the Senate with a 95-3 vote, and passed the House with a 399-25 vote. Both House and Senate versions of WRDA included provisions that would authorize $900 million in funding for the Central Everglades Planning Project (CEPP) and a provision that would legitimize the use of naturally-occurring features, such as marshes and wetlands in infrastructure projects. | Desc |

| FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A (CONTINUED): | Center for Marine Fisheries (CMF): The TRCP Center for Marine Fisheries has taken a leadership role in the efforts to ensure the long-term health of our ocean resources and the sporting traditions that rely on our marine fisheries. The CMF also identifies and engages in issues that are important to marine recreational anglers and works with TRCP partners to bring sportsmen's voices to the policy discussion (e.g., Gulf oil spill recovery, federal management of recreational fisheries, etc.). The Center for Marine Fisheries also continues to strengthen relationships with sportsmen's organizations and conservation groups throughout the Gulf, serving on advisory committees and organizing events and meetings with groups like Ducks Unlimited, Coastal Conservation Association, the Nature Conservancy, National Wildlife Federation and many others. CMF Director Chris Macaluso continues to serve on the Louisiana Governor's Advisory Commission for Coastal Protection, Restoration and Conservation as well as a sub-committee of that commission, which is examining the potential positive and negative effects of freshwater and sediment diversions in the Mississippi River Delta. He has met with those two groups twice in 2016. TRCP coordinated with Ducks Unlimited, CCA-Louisiana and the Louisiana Coastal Protection and Restoration Authority to host a sportsmen-centered meeting to discuss the effects of coastal restoration projects on hunting and fishing access and opportunities October 25 in Baton Rouge. The meeting was attended by 80 concerned anglers and hunters who wanted more information about the future of Louisiana's coast and efforts underway and planned to help restore and sustain vital coastal habitats and communities. TRCP marine fisheries and policy staff worked extensively with partner organizations, especially the American Sportfishing Association as well as fisheries experts from across the country, NOAA and congressional staff to organize two workshops to identify and refine alternatives to current federal fisheries management. TRCP marine fisheries, policy and development staff also worked with partner organizations to host a two-day media summit at this year's ICAST show in Orlando that presented information regarding fisheries management and efforts to restore the Everglades watershed to more than 150 media, fishing industry and government officials. In addition, the TRCP Marine Fisheries Director, Chris Macaluso, has been working side by side with ASA, Congressional Sportsmen's Foundation and Coastal Conservation Association on an effort called the Gulf Angler Focus Group that has brought together anglers and charter boat captains with state and federal fisheries managers to discuss management approaches that can help resolve current frustration and lack of trust with red snapper management at the Gulf of Mexico Fisheries Management Council. As part of this effort, the focus group has met with fisheries managers from all five Gulf States, the NOAA regional fisheries director and representatives from Pew, The Ocean Conservancy and The Environmental Defense Fund. The focus group has been professionally moderated by representatives from Florida State University. Throughout 2016, TRCP convened three workshops focused on discussion of alternative fisheries management approaches. This effort will culminate in a joint TRCP and ASA report on the workshops that includes the list of potential alternative management approaches and where and how they can be used most effectively and what changes to current law and policy may be needed. TRCP has been active in Florida around restoration of the Everglades as well. In 2016, we hired an organizer to focus on meeting with sportsmen's and conservation organizations and coordinating with the Everglades Foundation to secure support for the Now or Neverglades petition, an effort to get businesses, organizations and individuals to support projects that will move water from Lake Okeechobee south into the Everglades rather than forcing it to the east and west coasts of Florida. He has also met with the Corps of Engineers and South Florida Water Management District several times to discuss project selection and to represent the perspective of the angling community. Conservation Funding: The TRCP helps lead a coalition of sportsmen and conservation organizations on the cross-cutting issue of conservation funding. In recent years, the budget deficit has taken center stage with policy makers, and the trend to cut federal spending has taken a dramatic and disproportionate effect on conservation programs supported by the federal government. Programs that help conserve intact habitat or provide clean water protections have all been targeted for large cuts or elimination. Through the work within our community and among other allies we have seen some turn around in recent budget requests. We continue to push for the highest possible funding for programs within the various agencies and educate policy makers about direct relationship between these vital programs, their conservation benefits and their impact on the outdoor-recreation economy. In 2016, the Conservation Funding Center proactively took steps to discourage budget cuts in upcoming FY2017 appropriations and FY 2018 budget discussions. We organized our first joint Policy Council/Corporate Council sign-on letter urging Congress to fully fund conservation and find cuts elsewhere. The letter was signed by 43 organizations and businesses and asked for $32.158 billion for the Interior, Environment and Related Agencies Appropriations Bill; $5.76 billion for NOAA; and $851 million for NRCS. The Conservation Funding Center followed up the letter with meetings with key staff on the appropriations committees. We plan to move forward again in 2017 with a similar effort and have already convened a core group of sportsmen and conservation partners to begin this effort. Also in 2016, the TRCP collaborated or led in three conservation funding coalitions/proposals all seeking to find new solutions and streams of revenue for maintaining and even expanding federal investments in conservation. These include: - The American Heritage and Conservation Trust Act and includes nine separate titles, all of which would be taken off budget. Included in the bill is full funding for LWCF at the $900 million level. Depending on the final language, this legislation would cost $3.5-$4.8 billion annually and would be funded by oil and gas revenues on federal lands and waters. - The Recovering America's Wildlife Act, introduced by Representatives Don Young (R-AK) and Debbie Dingell (D-MI). This legislation would dedicate $1.3 billion annually to the unfunded Wildlife Conservation and Restoration Account, which is designed to help states manage non-game species. The funding would come from existing revenues from energy development on the outer continental shelf ($650 million) and from existing revenues from mineral development on federal lands ($650 million). These funds currently go into the U.S. Treasury. - Finally, TRCP is helping lead a coalition called the Conservation Royalty Investment Coalition (CRIC). CRIC is a coalition of conservation organizationsTRCP, AFWA, NWF, NFWF, and TNCand former lawmakers who are drafting a bill that would fully fund a number of conservation priorities including LWCF, state wildlife grants, coastal conservation, NAWCA, National Parks and public lands maintenance, and other programs. The strategy of the coalition is to get a bill introduced early next Congress that could be part of a new budget deal (the current budget agreement expires at the end of FY17) and/or infrastructure package. |
