COMPREHENSIVE CONSERVATION PLAN

Modoc National Wildlife Refuge began it's Comprehensive Conservation Plan (CCP) process in August 2007. The purpose of the CCP is to describe how the Refuge can best be managed to continue benefiting wildlife, plants and people over the next 15 years. The CCP provides the refuge manager a blue print for management by identifying goals, objectives, and strategies. It also provides neighbors and others a clear picture of what the Refuge intends to do in terms of managing the habitat, protecting the wildlife, and providing a place where people can enjoy wildlife-dependent activities.

Planning Update 1 describes the CCP process and the Refuge. Planning Update 2 describes the scoping process, comments received, and provides a draft vision statement and goals for the Refuge.

NEW! The Draft CCP and Environmental Assessment "EA" for Modoc NWR is available for review and comment.
The notice of availability was published in the Federal Register on June 15, 2009. Planning Update 3 describes four alternatives to manage the Refuge.
