SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Cameron Prairie National Wildlife Refuge is one of the three refuges that comprise the Southwest Louisiana National Wildlife Refuge Complex. It is located about 25 miles southeast of Lake Charles, Louisiana, in north central Cameron Parish. The 9,621-acre refuge and the 64,000-acre multi-agency Cameron Creole Watershed Project, which is managed by the refuge, contain freshwater marsh, coastal prairie, and early successional wetlands and are managed to conserve and protect wintering waterfowl and their habitat. The availability of the draft comprehensive conservation plan and environmental assessment for a 45-day review as announced in the Federal Register on July 27, 2005 (70 FR 43445). The draft plan and environmental assessment evaluated three alternatives for managing the refuge. Alternative B was chosen as the ‘‘preferred alternative.’’ Under the preferred alternative, the quality and quantity of habitat for wintering waterfowl will be maximized by focusing on a more adaptive management approach through improved biological monitoring. Public use opportunities will generally increase and moer emphasis will be placed on environmental education and interpretation. Commercial guides for wildlife viewing, wildlife photography, and environmental education and interpretation will be permitted. Research and monitoring will be enhanced. Programs to promote the beneficial use of dredge material will be allowed. Current partnerships that assist the refuge in accomplishing its conservation objectives will continue and the refuge will strive to develop new partnerships. A more aggressive approach to removal of undesirable plants and animals will be implemented. Cultural resources will continue to be protected. The refuge will assist in developing and maintaining the Southwest Louisiana National Wildlife Refuge Complex Headquarters, located at Cameron Prairie Refuge, in a manner that supports, directs, and manages the needs, resources, and staff of the entire Complex. Implementation of the goals, objectives, and strategies within the comprehensive conservation plan will allow the refuge to protect a variety of freshwater marshland and upland prairie habitat; to serve as a critical resting area for waterfowl in a heavily hunted area; to conserve, restore, and enhance diverse habitats for migratory PO 00000 Frm 00055 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 20121 and native wildlife species; to maintain health and viable native fish and wildlife populations; to provide opportunities for safe, quality, compatible, wildlife-dependent public use and recreation; and to protect cultural resources.
