SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
FOR INFORMATION CONTACT:
Background
The Refuge was established in 1989
by the authority provided under the
Endangered Species Act of 1973, the
Fish and Wildlife Act of 1956, and the
Emergency Wetlands Resources Act of
1986, using funds made available
through the Land and Water
Conservation Fund Act of 1965.
Sacramento River Refuge is part of the
Sacramento National Wildlife Refuge
Complex located in the Sacramento
Valley of north-central California. The
Refuge is located along both banks of
the Sacramento River between Red Bluff
and Princeton, California, in Glenn,
Butte, and Tehama Counties. The
10,304-acre Refuge is managed to
maintain, enhance and restore habitats
for threatened and endangered species,
migratory birds, anadromous fish and
native fish, wildlife, and plants.
The availability of the Draft CCP and
Environmental Assessment (EA) for a
45-day public review and comment
period was published in the Federal
Register on Tuesday, June 29, 2004, in
volume 69, number 124. The Draft CCP/
EA identified and evaluated three
alternatives for managing the Refuge for
the next 15 years. Alternative A was the
no-action alternative which described
current Refuge management activities.
Alternative B, the selected alternative,
will continue to emphasize restoration
for migratory birds and threatened and
endangered species. The Refuge will be
open for wildlife dependent public uses
and management programs will be
expanded. Alternative C would
accelerate habitat restoration and
maximize public use and is similar to
Alternative B except the agricultural
program would end immediately and
hunting would be allowed on larger
percentage of the Refuge.
The Service received 1,187 comment
letters on the Draft CCP and EA. The
comments were incorporated into the
CCP when appropriate, and are
otherwise addressed in an appendix to
the CCP. Alternative B was selected for
implementation and is the basis for the
Final CCP.
Under Alternative B, the focus of the
Refuge will be to continue to restore and
maintain riparian habitat for threatened

and endangered species, migratory
birds, anadromous and native fish,
wildlife, and plants. The Refuge will use
active and passive management
practices to achieve and maintain full
restoration/enhancement of all units
(5,855 acres) where appropriate, as
funding becomes available. The
agricultural program will be phased out
as restoration funding becomes
available. Under Alternative B, the
Service will improve and expand visitor
services with a focus on a balance of
priority public use opportunities
distributed throughout the entire
Refuge. New visitor services projects
under this alternative include:
developing interpretive kiosks, creating
a new refuge brochure, and constructing
walking trails and parking facilities on
vehicle accessible units. Hunting
opportunities will increase under
Alternative B. Approximately 52
percent of the Refuge will be opened to
hunting dove, waterfowl, coot, common
moorhen, pheasant, quail, snipe, turkey,
and deer. Hunting will be limited to
shotgun or archery only. Twenty-three
riverbank miles and seasonally
submerged areas will be opened to sport
fishing consistent with State
regulations. Camping will be allowed on
gravels bars below the ordinary high
water mark.
This alternative was selected for
implementation because it includes
needed improvements in migratory bird
and special status species management
and makes an important contribution to
regional biodiversity. It also provides a
balanced mix of compatible wildlifedependant recreation opportunities to
meet the growing demand in the region.
Implementation of this alternative will
require additional staff and funding.
