Julia Butler Hansen Refuge
for the Columbian Whitetail Deer and Lewis and Clark National
Wildlife Refuge
Comprehensive Conservation Plan

Current Status:
Julia Butler Hansen Refuge and Lewis and Clark NWR are in the process of developing their Comprehensive Conservation Plans (CCPs). CCPs describe the desired future conditions of a refuge and provide long-range guidance and management direction to achieve refuge purposes; help fulfill the National Wildlife Refuge System (Refuge System) mission; maintain and, where appropriate, restore the ecological integrity of each refuge and the Refuge System; help achieve the goals of the National Wilderness Preservation System; and meet other mandates. CCPs normally plan for a 15 year timeframe.
