Following a 30-day public comment period, the Service released a “Finding of No Significant Impact” for its proposal to remove the Pink House, and will restore the habitat for wildlife and open a portion of the property to the public. Additional information, including changes made to the plan based on public comment and frequently asked questions, can be found online. The full EA can be read online, and hard copies are available to read at the refuge visitor center.
