Greetings Tweets --

The Nisqually National Wildlife Refuge has recently issued its Draft
Comprehensive Conservation Plan and EIS. I got my copy in the mail a
few days ago.

The CCP describes the required "no action" alternative, and four
action alternatives, all of which propose some expansion of the
refuge boundaries, and various approaches to estuarine habitat
restoration.

Electronic copies of the plan are available at
http://pacific.fws.gov/planning/ towards the bottom of the page.

Additional information (including open house meetings) is on the
Refuge's web site at http://nisqually.fws.gov/noframes.ccp_update.html
