we would also restore 100 ac of riparian
woodlands and 1,700 ac of vernal pool
habitat on the Snobird unit of the
Merced NWR.
Under Alternative C (proposed
action), the Service would manage with
a biodiversity focus that would include
both wetland and upland habitats for
wildlife. We would manage wetlanddependent wildlife and wetland habitats
on San Luis and Merced NWRs
essentially the same as under
Alternative B, except moist soil
wetlands (the most common wetland
habitat at the Complex) would continue
to be managed under an 8-year
disturbance cycle. Grassland
management activities would increase at
the San Luis and Merced NWRs, to
focus on providing nesting habitat for
migratory birds and other wildlife and
suitable grazing/foraging habitat for
migratory birds, including geese, cranes
and curlew, and on restoring native
plants and natural processes to
grasslands. Inventory, monitoring, and
research programs of natural resources
would be expanded. We would shift
some of the wildlife easement
acquisition authority to fee-title
acquisition authority within the
Grasslands Wildlife Management Area
acquisition boundary to allow greater
flexibility for conserving important
wildlife habitat (i.e., wetlands, vernal
pools). We would expand wildlife
observation opportunities by adding an
additional riparian focused nature trail,
a children’s interactive nature
exploration area, and an additional
boardwalk section. We would also host
visitor workshops on wildlife
identification/observation and
photography. Interpretation and
environmental education opportunities
would also be improved and expanded.

As part of our continuing effort to
reduce paperwork and respondent
burdens, we invite the public and other
Federal agencies to comment on new,
proposed, revised, and continuing
collections of information. This helps us
assess the impact of our information
collection requirements and minimize
the public’s reporting burden. It also
helps the public understand our
information collection requirements and
provide the requested data in the
desired format.
We are especially interested in public
comment addressing the following:
(1) Whether or not the collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
agency, including whether or not the
information will have practical utility;
(2) The accuracy of our estimate of the
burden for this collection of
information, including the validity of
the methodology and assumptions used;
(3) Ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected; and
(4) How the agency might minimize
the burden of the collection of
information on those who are to
respond, including through the use of
appropriate automated, electronic,
mechanical, or other technological
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology, e.g., permitting
electronic submission of response.
Comments that you submit in
response to this notice are a matter of
public record. We will include or
summarize each comment in our request
