Project Profile

Current Status:
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is developing a Comprehensive Conservation Plan (CCP) and a Environmental Assessment for the Farallon NWR. During public scoping, which began in May 2005, we gathered public comments which provided information on important resource issues. A summary of public comments is provided in Planning Update 2 posted on the right.

Purpose of CCP:
As part of the National Wildlife Refuge System, the Farallon NWR is required to have a CCP in place to guide the management of fish, wildlife, plants, habitats, and public uses for a period of 15 years.
