Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 12 / Wednesday, January 21, 2009 / Notices
available to the public, including
opportunities for hunting, fishing,
wildlife observation, wildlife
photography, and environmental
education and interpretation. We will
review and update the CCP at least
every 15 years in accordance with the
Improvement Act.
Each unit of the National Wildlife
Refuge System is established for specific
purposes. We use the purposes as the
foundation for developing and
prioritizing the management goals and
objectives for each refuge within the
National Wildlife Refuge System
mission, and to determine how the
public can use each refuge. The
planning process is a way for us and the
public to evaluate management goals
and objectives for the best possible
conservation approach to this important
wildlife habitat, while providing for
wildlife-dependent recreation
opportunities that are compatible with
the refuge’s establishing purposes and
the mission of the National Wildlife
Refuge System.
Our CCP process provides
participation opportunities for state,
tribal, and local governments; agencies;
organizations; and the public. At this
time we encourage input in the form of
issues, concerns, ideas, and suggestions
for the future management of White
River NWR. Special mailings,
newspaper articles, and other media
outlets will be used to announce
opportunities for input throughout the
planning process.
We will conduct the environmental
assessment in accordance with the
requirements of the National
Environmental Policy Act of 1969, as
amended (NEPA) (42 U.S.C. 4321 et
seq.); NEPA regulations (40 CFR parts
1500–1508); other appropriate Federal
laws and regulations; and our policies
and procedures for compliance with
those laws and regulations.
White River NWR was established in
1935 for the protection of migratory
birds. The refuge lies in the floodplain
of the White River near where it meets
the Mississippi River. The refuge has
one of the largest remaining bottomland
hardwood forests in the Mississippi
River Valley. The refuge’s fertile forests
and 300 lakes are interlaced with
streams, sloughs, and bayous. The result
is a haven for a myriad of native wildlife
and migratory birds.
Approximately two-thirds of the bird
species found in Arkansas can be seen
at White River NWR. Many of these are
neotropical migratory songbirds that use
the refuge as a stopping point on their
journey to and from Central and South
America.

The refuge provides important
opportunities for compatible wildlifedependent recreational activities
involving hunting, fishing, wildlife
observation, wildlife photography, and
environmental education and
interpretation. In 2003, White River
NWR completed construction of a
10,000-square-foot office and visitor
center off Highway 1 in St. Charles,
Arkansas. This facility houses an
auditorium, environmental education
classroom, an exhibit hall, and the
Friends of White River Bookstore.
