Wetlands would be managed to increase productivity and reduce water pumping costs. Invasive species and State- and county-listed noxious weeds would continue to be a primary management concern. Enhancing and restoring bottomland forest and oak woodland habitats would increase. We would complete habitat assessments to guide restoration of streams and tidally influenced wetlands. We would conduct feasibility studies for reintroducing native species such as Columbian whitetailed deer and western pond turtle, and inventory and monitoring efforts would increase. Current public use areas and closures would remain in effect under Alternative 2. The waterfowl hunt area/ location would remain unchanged. Proposed changes in wetland management would improve the hunt program’s quality over time. A new access point to the River ‘S’ Unit, including a 2-lane bridge and 1-mile entrance road, would be developed. The existing auto tour route would be open year round in its current location; however, the route would be shortened slightly to provide habitat for dusky Canada geese and cranes. A new 1.5mile dike-top walking trail would be constructed. Environmental and cultural resources education and interpretation programs would increase. sroberts on DSKD5P82C1PROD with NOTICES Alternative 3 Under Alternative 3, actions to protect, maintain, and restore habitat for priority species are the same as under Alternative 2. Current public use areas and closures would remain in effect. The waterfowl hunt area/location would remain the same; however, core dusky habitat on the south end of the River ‘S’ Unit (207 acres) would be closed to goose hunting. The existing access point to the River ‘S’ Unit would be retained; a new 2-lane bridge would be constructed to eliminate the at-grade railroad crossing; and the entrance road would be widened. Implementation of this alternative would require either land acquisition or easement relocation/ expansion. The existing auto tour route would remain unchanged. A new 1.5mile dike-top walking trail would be constructed. Environmental and cultural resources education and interpretation programs would increase. Alternative 4 Under Alternative 4, actions to protect, maintain, and restore habitat for priority species would be the same as under Alternatives 2 and 3, except slightly more crops would be grown. The total wildlife sanctuary area (closed VerDate Mar<15>2010 16:19 Jun 15, 2010 Jkt 220001 to public use) would be slightly less than the other alternatives; however, this alternative provides the largest contiguous sanctuary for dusky Canada geese and sandhill cranes on the south end of the refuge. A new access point to the River ‘S’ Unit, including a 2-lane bridge and 1-mile entrance road north of the current access point, would be developed. Closing the south end of the River ‘S’ Unit to public use during waterfowl and crane migration season, to benefit dusky Canada geese and sandhill cranes is proposed in this alternative. The south end of the River ‘S’ Unit (207 acres) would be closed to hunting, and the south end of the auto tour route would be closed during waterfowl season (October 1–March 15), which would reduce its length from 4.3 miles to 2.6 miles during that time. To offset the loss of hunting opportunities on the south end of the River ‘S’ Unit, 250 acres of Bachelor Island would be opened to waterfowl hunting. The northern portion of this area would be closed early to hunting (January 15) to prevent disturbance to a great blue heron nesting colony. A new 1.5-mile dike-top walking trail would be constructed. Environmental and cultural resources education and interpretation programs would increase.

(‘‘Amcor’’), Rio Tinto plc (‘‘Rio Tinto’’), and Alcan Corporation to enjoin Amcor’s proposed acquisition from Rio Tinto of the Alcan Packaging Medical Flexibles business (‘‘Alcan Packaging’’) and to obtain other equitable relief. The United States complains and alleges as follows: I. Nature of This Action 1. Defendants Amcor Ltd. and Rio Tinto plc entered into an asset purchase agreement dated December 21, 2009, pursuant to which Amcor agreed to acquire the Alcan Packaging Medical Flexibles business from Rio Tinto for $65 million. 2. Amcor and Alcan Packaging are two of the three leading suppliers of vented bags for medical use in the United States. 3. The proposed acquisition would eliminate competition between Amcor and Alcan Packaging. For significant customers, Amcor and Alcan Packaging are the two best sources of vented bags for medical use. Elimination of the competition between Amcor and Alcan Packaging likely will result in Amcor’s ability to raise prices to these customers. In addition, by eliminating Alcan Packaging, the transaction increases the likelihood of coordinated interaction between Amcor and the other leading supplier of vented bags for medical use. As a result, the proposed acquisition likely would substantially lessen competition in the development, production, and sale of vented bags for medical use in the United States, in violation of Section 7 of the Clayton Act, 15 U.S.C. 18.
