additional staffing, the Service would
collect baseline biological information
for wildlife and habitats. Wildlifedependent recreation opportunities
would be provided and enhanced where
compatible with refuge purposes. Efforts
would be increased in the operations
and maintenance of natural resources on
the refuge and to maintain and develop
partnerships that promote wildlife and
habitat research and management.
Alternative C is the Service’s
proposed action and basis for the draft
comprehensive conservation plan.
Under Alternative C, the Memorandum
of Agreement between the Bureau of
Reclamation and the Service would be
modified to eliminate Service interest in
lands (approximately 10,800 acres) that
are difficult to manage and provide
minimal opportunity to improve
wildlife habitat. Remaining refuge areas
would be managed similar to those
actions described in Alternative B. This
would enable the Service to focus efforts
on manageable lands, thereby enhancing
refuge management and efficiently
directing refuge resources toward
accomplishing the mission of the Refuge
System.
The proposed action (Alternative C)
was selected because it best meets the
purposes and goals of the refuge, as well
as the mission and goals of the National
Wildlife Refuge System. The proposed
action will also benefit federally listed
species, shore birds, migrating and
nesting waterfowl and resident wildlife.
Environmental education and
partnerships will result in improved
wildlife-dependent recreational
opportunities. Cultural and historical
resources as well as federally listed
species will be protected.
Opportunity for public input will be
provided at a public meeting to be
scheduled soon. The specific date and
time for the public meeting is yet to be
determined, but will be announced via
local media and a planning update. All
information provided voluntarily by
mail, by phone, or at public meetings
(e.g., names, addresses, letters of
comment, input recorded during
meetings) becomes part of the official
public record. If requested under the
Freedom of Information Act by a private
citizen or organization, the Service may
provide copies of such information. The
environmental review of this project
will be conducted in accordance with
the requirements of the National
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of
1969, as amended (42 U.S.C. 4321 et
seq.); NEPA Regulations (40 CFR parts
1500–1508); other appropriate Federal
laws and regulations; Executive Order
