Bill overview
The Developing Alternative Mitigation Systems for Beavers Act (DAMS for Beavers Act) establishes a grant program to help communities and organizations use non-lethal methods to reduce property damage caused by beavers. This program, administered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, will provide funding to eligible entities – including tribes, states, local governments, and non-profits – to implement projects that utilize techniques like fencing and flow management devices to coexist with beavers. The goal is to minimize damage while also maintaining or enhancing beaver habitat and related wildlife ecosystems.
