PROJECT PROFILE

Current Status:
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is developing a Comprehensive Conservation Plan (CCP) and associated NEPA documents for Pee Dee National Wildlife Refuge (NWR).

An overview of the CCP process is provided in Planning Update 1
(posted to the left).

Public scoping began in late 2006, and a public meeting was held at the refuge on January 25, 2007.  A summary of the public comments is listed in Planning Update 2 (posted to the left). 

In addition to the public scoping, the refuge performed an environmental assessment (EA) to develop and analyze management alternatives associated with development of the CCP.  Information concerning the EA can be found in Planning Update 2 as well.

The Draft CCP/EA is available for public comment (for details see Planning Update 3 posted to the left).

Purpose of CCP:
As part of the National Wildlife Refuge System, Pee Dee 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.

Public Review of Draft CCP/EA:
The public comment period has begun and will end on Thursday, May 22, 2008.  You can review the document online at: http://www.fws.gov/southeast/planning/
