Description: The Visitor Facility Enhancement program element includes the development and rehabilitation of facilities that support public use at national wildlife refuges. These low-cost construction projects such as boat docks, boardwalks, and observation towers reach more community members with greater efficiency and reduced operational and maintenance costs.
