the ADDRESSES section.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: With this
notice, we finalize the CCP process for
Catahoula National Wildlife Refuge,
begun as announced in the Federal
Register on March 2, 2005 (70 FR
10109). For more about the process, see
that notice. We released the Draft
Comprehensive Conservation Plan and
Environmental Assessment (Draft CCP/
EA) to the public, requesting comments
in a notice of availability in the Federal
Register on April 19, 2007 (72 FR
19719).
The plan and environmental
assessment identified and evaluated
three alternatives for managing the
refuge over the next 15 years.
Alternative A represents no change from
current management of the refuge. All
management actions would be directed
towards achieving the refuge’s primary
purposes, which include: (1) To provide
migrating and wintering habitat for
migratory waterfowl consistent with the
overall objectives of the Mississippi
Flyway; (2) to provide nesting habitat
for wood ducks; (3) to provide habitat
and protection for threatened and
endangered species; and (4) to manage
bottomland hardwoods and provide
habitat for a natural wildlife diversity.
Under Alternative B, the refuge would
add more staff, equipment, and facilities
in order to provide greater enhancement
and management of bottomland
hardwood forest, grassland, and moistsoil habitats for the greatest benefit of
wildlife. The primary focus under
Alternative C would be to maximize the
endemic bottomland hardwood forest
with minimal management. Under this
alternative, there would be no active
management of refuge resources.
Based on the environmental
assessment and the comments received,
the Service adopted Alternative B as its
