It's a part of a $481,000 multi-park project from the Inflation Reduction Act. The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law and the Inflation Reduction Act will provide $52 million to the National Parks Service to fund 100 projects related to ecosystem restoration and environmental planning needs across the country.
