we would also restore 100 ac of riparian 

woodlands and 1,700 ac of vernal pool 

habitat on the Snobird unit of the 

Merced NWR. 

Under Alternative C (proposed 

action), the Service would manage with 

a biodiversity focus that would include 

both wetland and upland habitats for 

wildlife. We would manage wetlanddependent wildlife and wetland habitats 

on San Luis and Merced NWRs 

essentially the same as under 

Alternative B, except moist soil 

wetlands (the most common wetland 

habitat at the Complex) would continue 

to be managed under an 8-year 

disturbance cycle. Grassland 

management activities would increase at 

the San Luis and Merced NWRs, to 

focus on providing nesting habitat for 

migratory birds and other wildlife and 

suitable grazing/foraging habitat for 

migratory birds, including geese, cranes 

and curlew, and on restoring native 

plants and natural processes to 

grasslands. Inventory, monitoring, and 

research programs of natural resources 

would be expanded. We would shift 

some of the wildlife easement 

acquisition authority to fee-title 

acquisition authority within the 

Grasslands Wildlife Management Area 

acquisition boundary to allow greater 

flexibility for conserving important 

wildlife habitat (i.e., wetlands, vernal 

pools). We would expand wildlife 

observation opportunities by adding an 

additional riparian focused nature trail, 

a children’s interactive nature 

exploration area, and an additional 

boardwalk section. We would also host 

visitor workshops on wildlife 

identification/observation and 

photography. Interpretation and 

environmental education opportunities 

would also be improved and expanded. 

Public Meetings 

The locations, dates, and times of 

public meetings will be listed in a 

public communications release 

distributed to the project mailing list 

and posted on the refuge website at 

https://www.fws.gov/refuge/san-luis. 

Review and Comment 

At the end of the review and comment 

period for the draft CCP/EA, comments 

will be analyzed by the Service and 

addressed in the final CCP/EA. Before 

including your address, phone number, 

email address, or other personal 

identifying information in your 

comment, you should be aware that 

your entire comment—including your 

personal identifying information—may

do so.

(4) How the agency might minimize 

the burden of the collection of 

information on those who are to 

respond, including through the use of 

appropriate automated, electronic, 

mechanical, or other technological 

collection techniques or other forms of 

information technology, e.g., permitting 

electronic submission of response.

Abstract: USGS Cooperative 

Landslide Hazard Mapping and 

Assessment Program priorities reflect 

the National Landslide Preparedness 

Act (Public Law 116–323), which 

supports the mission of the USGS 

Landslide Hazards Program to reduce 

loss of lives and property from 

landslides and improve public safety 

and community resilience for the 

Nation. Proposed risk-reduction 

activities should advance landslide 

science and communication that 

underlie the priorities of the National 

Landslide Preparedness Act by focusing 

on landslide hazard planning, 

coordination, education, outreach, 

mapping, and assessments. The
