The CCP Process
The National Wildlife Refuge System
Administration Act of 1966 (16 U.S.C.
668dd–668ee) (Administration Act), as
amended by the National Wildlife
Refuge System Improvement Act of
1997, requires us to develop a CCP for
each national wildlife refuge. The
purpose for developing a CCP is to
provide refuge managers with a 15-year
plan 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 our policies. In
addition to outlining broad management
direction on conserving wildlife and
their habitats, CCPs identify wildlifedependent recreational opportunities
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
Administration Act.
Established in 1980, Bogue Chitto
NWR is one of eight refuges managed as
part of the Southeast Louisiana National
Wildlife Refuge Complex (Complex).
The refuge headquarters is located about
9 miles northeast of Slidell, Louisiana.
The 36,502-acre refuge is bisected by the
Pearl River, with portions in St.
Tammany and Washington Parishes,
Louisiana, and Pearl River County,
Mississippi. On the Mississippi side of
the river, the refuge is bounded by Old
River Wildlife Management Area
(15,400 acres) to the north and by the
State of Louisiana’s Pearl River Wildlife
Management Area (35,031 acres) to the
south, thereby forming nearly an 87,000acre block of protected forested
wetlands and adjacent uplands within
the Pearl River Basin.
The public has the opportunity to
hunt white-tailed deer, squirrel, turkey,
waterfowl, and hog. Fishing is also
available. Threatened and endangered
species found on the refuge are: Ringed
map turtle (Graptemys oculifera),
gopher tortoise (Gopherus polyphemus),
inflated heelsplitter mussel (Potamilus
inflatus), and gulf sturgeon (Acipenser
oxyrinchus desotoi). Access is primarily
by boat on the Louisiana side, with road
access available on the Mississippi side.
In 2002, the Holmes Bayou walking trail
was unveiled on the Louisiana side of
the refuge. This 3/4-mile walking trail
offers a unique journey into the interior
of the refuge’s majestic habitat. The
Pearl River Turnaround area is being
developed as a site for education and
interpretation, as well as a site for the
annual youth fishing rodeo.
Comments
We made copies of the Draft CCP/EA
available for a 30-day public review and
comment period via a Federal Register
notice on May 27, 2011 (76 FR 30959).
A news release was sent out to four
local, State, and regional newspapers;
six online media outlets; and two local
radio networks. Copies of the Draft CCP/
EA were posted at refuge headquarters
and on the Service’s Internet Web site
and more than 100 copies were
distributed to local landowners; the
general public; and local, State, and
Federal agencies. Respondents
representing the Service, the Louisiana
Department of Wildlife and Fisheries,
and the National Park Service, as well
as local citizens, submitted written
comments by mail or email.
