Administration Act of 1966, as amended by the Refuge Improvement Act of
1997 (16 U.S.C. 668dd et seq.), requires each refuge to develop and
implement a CCP. We published a notice in the Federal Register on

Draft Revised comprehensive conservation plan and environmental
assessment for Farallon National Wildlife Refuge. The document
identified a review period ending on February 20, 2009. Subsequent to
the release of the draft CCP, we have received several requests to
extend the comment period. With this notice, we announce our decision
to reopen the comment period until April 13, 2009, to ensure the public
