Through this program, the PFBC provides grants for the planning, acquisition, development, expansion, and rehabilitation of public boating facilities located on the waters of the Commonwealth.

The goal of the program is to ensure Pennsylvania's recreational boaters have convenient and high quality boating facilities.
Funds for this program are derived primarily from boat registration fees and state motorboat fuels taxes. In certain instances, federal aid is also used, if appropriate.
"Pennsylvania continues to prove itself as a leader in connecting people to the water," said Paul Littman, Director of the PFBC's Bureau of Boating. "Through our Boating Facilities Grant Program, more communities across the Commonwealth are realizing the benefits of improving their existing access areas or developing new places that local residents and visiting recreational boaters can enjoy."
Additional Boating Facility Grants, which include more than $100,000 in funding from the PFBC, will be announced later in 2024, pending required approval from the PFBC Board of Commissioners.
