Comprehensive Conservation Plan - A multi-year planning process has begun to develop a Comprehensive Conservation Plan (CCP) and Environmental Assessment (EA) for Rose Atoll National Wildlife Refuges. As part of the National Wildlife Refuge System, Refuges are 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.

For updates on the CCP, please click the links below:

Planning Update 1 (pdf 1.22M) announces Public Open House Meetings on November 19, 2009, in Pago Pago, American Samoa. It also provides an overview of the refuge and the Rose Atoll Marine National Monument, and includes a list of potential refuge issues we may consider during the CCP planning process.

Planning Update 2 (pdf 1.5M) lists primary management issues that will be used to draft management alternatives and refine draft goals and objectives. For a printable version (single pages), click here.

Planning Update 2 (pdf 1.72M) Samoan language version. For a printable version (single pages), click here.

Printed copies of the planning update will be in the mail shortly. If you would like to be added to our mailing list please contact the Refuge at the address below.
