Introduction
With this notice, we complete the
CCP process for Crane Meadows NWR,
which we began by publishing a notice
of intent on (73 FR 76677–76678,
December 17, 2008). For more
information about the initial process,
see that notice. We released the draft
CCP and EA to the public, announcing
and requesting comments in a notice of
availability on (75 FR 39037–39038, July
7, 2010).
Crane Meadows NWR, located in
central Minnesota, was established in
1992 to protect one of the largest, most
intact wetland complexes remaining in
the State. The Refuge owns
approximately 1,800 acres of 13,540
acres identified for acquisition, and an
additional 900 acres are owned and
managed by the Minnesota Department
of Natural Resources. In addition to
hosting relatively rare habitat types
including oak savanna, sand prairie, and
sedge meadow, it also provides key
habitat for local and migratory wildlife,
maintains essential ecological services,
provides an element of water control
and flood relief, protects important
archaeological resources, and offers
unique recreation, education, and
research opportunities.
The Draft CCP and EA were officially
released for public review on July 7,
2010; the 31-day comment period ended
on August 6, 2010. Planning
information was sent to approximately
265 individuals and organizations for
review and announced through local
media outlets, resulting in three
comment submissions. During the
comment period the Refuge also hosted
an open house to receive public
comments and feedback on the CCP and
EA documents. Three individuals
attended this event—all current or
former state Department of Natural
Resources employees. Because no
changes to the preferred alternative
were recommended by Refuge
audiences during the public review
period, only minor changes were made
to the drafts in preparing the final CCP/
EA documents.
Based on input and feedback during
the planning process, alternative B was
selected as the preferred alternative.
This alternative portrays a long-term
vision for habitat restoration to nearhistoric benchmark conditions and
increases recreation opportunities for
visitors over the 15-year planning
horizon. A diversity of wetland and
savanna habitats are favored reinforcing
historic conditions, while prairie and
woodland are reduced over the long-
Frm 00073
Fmt 4703
term. This alternative includes active
participation in monitoring and
improving upstream water resources,
calls for adherence to a well-developed
prescribed fire plan, increases land
acquisition and work on private lands in
high priority areas, augments the
existing biological inventory and
monitoring program, and offers visitor
services in a greater number of
locations. Specific, managed hunts are
offered, and opportunities for quality
fishing experiences will be evaluated as
new lands are acquired.
Background
The National Wildlife Refuge System
Administration Act of 1966, as amended
by the National Wildlife Refuge System
Improvement Act of 1997 (16 U.S.C.
668dd-668ee et seq.), requires the
Service to develop a CCP for each
National Wildlife Refuge. The purpose
in developing a CCP is to provide refuge
managers with a 15-year strategy for
achieving refuge purposes and
contributing toward the mission of the
National Wildlife Refuge System,
consistent with sound principles of fish
and wildlife management, conservation,
legal mandates, and Service policies. In
addition to outlining broad management
direction for conserving wildlife and
their habitats, the CCP identifies
wildlife-dependent recreational
opportunities available to the public,
including opportunities for hunting,
fishing, wildlife observation and
photography, and environmental
education and interpretation.
We will review and update the CCP
at least every 15 years in accordance
with the National Wildlife Refuge
System Administration Act of 1966, as
amended by the National Wildlife
Refuge System Improvement Act of
1997, and the National Environmental
Policy Act of 1969 (42 U.S.C. 4321–
4370d).

Notice is hereby given that on October
8, 2010, a proposed Consent Decree in
United States and State of Missouri v.
The Doe Run Resources Corporation, et
al., Civil Action 4:10-cv-1895 was
lodged with the United States District
Court for the Eastern District of
Missouri.
In this action the United States and
the State of Missouri sought civil
penalties and injunctive relief for
environmental violations of the Clean
Air Act, 42 U.S.C. 7401–7671q; the
Missouri Air Conservation Law, Chapter
643, RSMo; the Resource Conservation

Environmental Response,

U.S.C. 9601–9603 at several of the
mining, milling, and smelting facilities
located in Missouri owned and operated
by The Doe Run Resources Corporation,
The Doe Run Resources Corporation
d/b/a ‘‘The Doe Run Company’’, and The
Buick Resource Recycling Facility, LLC
(‘‘Defendants’’). To resolve the United
States’ and State’s claims the
Defendants will pay a civil penalty of $7
million. The penalty will be paid in a
$3.5 million payment to the United
States and a $1.5 million payment to the
state of Missouri, with an additional $1
million plus interest to be paid to the
state each year for the next two years.
The settlement also requires Doe Run to
establish financial assurance trust funds
for the cleanup of the following active
or former mining and milling facilities:
Brushy Creek, Buick, Fletcher,
Sweetwater, Viburnum, and West Fork.
Doe Run will also take steps to address
RCRA violations at certain facilities;
finalize and come into compliance with
more stringent Clean Water Act permits
at 10 of its facilities, including
Herculaneum, Glover, Brushy Creek,
Buick Mill, Fletcher, Sweetwater,
Viburnum, West Fork, Mine #35
(Casteel), and Buick Resource Recycling;
and will spend an estimated $5.8
million on stream mitigation activities
along 8.5 miles of Bee Fork Creek, an
impaired waterway near Doe Run’s
Fletcher mine and mill facility. At four
facilities, Buick Mine, Brushy Creek,
Fletcher, and Sweetwater, Doe Run will
also enclose the lead concentrate
handling, loading, and storage areas
under negative pressure with emissions
routed to a baghouse. The company will
also spend $2 million on community
mitigation projects over the next four
years.
In addition, instead of installing
pollution control technologies needed to
reduce sulfur dioxide and lead
emissions as required by the Clean Air
Act, Doe Run has made a business
decision to shut down its lead smelter
in Herculaneum, Mo., by Dec. 31, 2013.
The company will also provide an
initial $8.14 million in financial
assurance to guarantee cleanup work at
the Herculaneum facility.

this publication comments relating to
the Consent Decree. Comments should
