the same as the average annual burden 

hours. Each of the 550 properties

spend a combined total of 

approximately 180 minutes responding 

to our information requests and followup questions.

Alligator River National Wildlife Refuge 

AGENCY: Fish and Wildlife Service, 

Interior. 

ACTION: Notice of availability of the 

Final Comprehensive Conservation Plan 

and Finding of No Significant Impact for 

Alligator River National Wildlife Refuge 

in Manteo, North Carolina. 

SUMMARY: The Fish and Wildlife Service 

announces that a Final Comprehensive 

Conservation Plan and Finding of No 

Significant Impact for Alligator River 

National Wildlife Refuge is available for 

distribution. The plan was prepared 

pursuant to the National Wildlife Refuge 

System Improvement Act of 1997, and 

in accordance with the National 

Environmental Policy Act of 1969, and 

describes how the refuge will be 

managed for the next 15 years. The 

compatibility determinations for 

hunting, fishing, wildlife observation 

and photography, environmental 

education and interpretation, and 

trapping of selected furbearers are also 

available in the plan. 

ADDRESSES: A copy of the plan may be 

obtained by writing to the Alligator 

River National Wildlife Refuge, P.O. Box 

1969, Manteo, North Carolina 27954. 

The plan may also be accessed and 

downloaded from the Service’s Web 

site: http://southeast.fws.gov/planning/. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

availability of the Draft Comprehensive 

Conservation Plan and Environmental 

Assessment for a 45-day public review 

and comment period was announced in 

the Federal Register on May 30, 2006 

(71 FR 30687). The plan and 

environmental assessment identified 

and evaluated three alternatives for 

managing the refuge over the next 15 

years. Alternative 1, the no-action 

alternative, would have continued 

current management of the refuge. 

Alternative 3 would have resulted in 

substantial program increases. 

Based on the environmental 

assessment and the comments received, 

the Service adopted Alternative 2 as its 

preferred alternative. Alternative 2 

directs the development of programs to 

best achieve the refuge purpose and 

goals; emphasizes wildlife conservation 

as our highest priority in refuge 

management; collects habitat and 

wildlife data; and ensures long-term 

achievement of refuge and Service 

objectives. At the same time, these 

management actions provide balanced 

levels of compatible public use 

opportunities consistent with existing 

laws, Service policies, and sound 

biological principles. Alternative 2 

provides the best mix of program 

elements to achieve desired long-term 

conditions. 

Under this alternative, all lands under 

the management and direction of the 

refuge will be protected, maintained, 

and enhanced to best achieve national, 

ecosystem, and refuge-specific goals and 

objectives within anticipated funding 

and staffing levels. In addition, the 

action positively addresses significant 

issues and concerns expressed by the 

public. 

Alligator River National Wildlife 

Refuge is located in Dare and Hyde 

Counties, North Carolina, about 3.5 

hours east of Raleigh and 1.5 hours 

south of the Virginia line. The refuge 

covers a total of 153,017 acres within 

the 239,800-acre acquisition boundary 

and occupies the eastern-most portion 

of the Albemarle-Pamlico Peninsula in 

eastern North Carolina. The refuge is the 

lead refuge in the North Carolina 

Coastal Plain Refuge Complex and 

consists of a variety of habitats, 

including forested wetlands, shrub 

wetlands, agricultural lands, moist-soil 

areas, open waters, dirt/gravel access 

roads and trails, and recently reforested 

areas. Annually, more than 35,000 

people visit the refuge.
