  • The Vascular Flora of Back Bay National Wildlife Refuge and False Cape State Park, Virginia
    Medical Research Archives The Vascular Flora of Back Bay National Wildlife Refuge and False Cape State Park, Virginia The Vascular Flora of Back Bay National Wildlife Refuge and False Cape State Park, Virginia Richard Stalter* and Eric E. Lamont ** Department of Biological Sciences, St. John's University, Jamaica, NY 11439 New York Botanical Garden, Bronx, NY 10458 *Corresponding Author Dr. Richard Stalter ( [email protected] ) Copyright 2015 KEI Journals. All rights reserved. Medical Research Archives The Vascular Flora of Back Bay National Wildlife Refuge and False Cape State Park, Virginia ABSTRACT The vascular flora of Bay National Wildlife Refuge and False Cape State Park, Virginia consists of 602 species within 343 genera and 123 families. Of these 519 are native (86%) while 83 are not native to the region. Thirty two species are listed as rare or endangered in Virginia including two small populations of Bartonia verna at False Cape State Park found nowhere else in the state. Several species with southern affinities reach their northern range limit on the Back Bay region, whereas only two northern taxa, Hudsonia tomentosa and Myrica pensylvania are near their southern limit. Non-native varieties of Phragmites australis are a major component of the natural vegetation and pose a threat to native taxa. Each taxonomic entry in the checklist is accompanied by an annotation which includes the locality and habitat in which each taxon occurs, frequence of occurrence, range extensions, rarity status, and pertinent synonyms. Key words : flora, distribution, biodiversity, Back Bay National Wildlife Refuge, False Cape State Park, Virginia. Copyright 2015 KEI Journals.

A facilitator skilled in interpretive planning works with park staff, partners, and outside consultants to prepare a plan that is consistent with other current planning documents. Part 1 of the LRIP establishes criteria against which existing and proposed personal services and media can be measured. It identifies themes, audiences, audience experiences, and issues. Part 2 describes the mix of services and facilities that are necessary to achieve management goals and interpretive mission. It includes implementation charts that plot a course of action, assign responsibilities, and offer a schedule of activity. When appropriate, Appendices provide more detailed discussions of specific topics. The completed LRIP forms a critical part of the more inclusive Comprehensive Interpretive Plan (CIP).

  • Chapter 4 USFWS Eastern B-Pool During Spring, Prior to Draw-Down for Shorebird Feeding
    Chapter 4 USFWS Eastern B-Pool during spring, prior to draw-down for shorebird feeding Management Direction and Implementation • Introduction • Goals, Objectives, and Strategies • Other Management Activities Goals, Objectives, and Strategies Introduction This chapter is in two parts. In combination, the chapter describes the array of management objectives that, in our professional judgement, work best toward achieving the refuge purposes, the vision and goals developed during the planning process, and the goals and objectives of other Service, State and regional conservation plans. We believe in implementing these actions will also effectively address the key issues raised during plan development. The first part, "Goals Objectives an Strategies," describes refuge actions that were developed to achieve specific goals and objectives. The second part, "Other Management Activities", describe refuge actions that were common to all the alternatives in the draft CCP/EA and will be implemented on the refuge Some strategies do not specifically interconnect with any of the seven goals developed for the CCP. For example, the strategies and actions related to cultural, archaeological and historic resources may not fit under habitat or public use goals, but are important nonetheless. Goals, Objectives, and Strategies GOAL 1. Maintain and enhance the biological integrity and diversity of wetland habitats for migratory birds including species of conservation concern. Objective 1a. Manage 906 acres of 13 freshwater impoundments at Back Bay NWR, plus Impoundments- 165 acres of two freshwater impoundments at False Cape State Park, to meet Migrating/Over-wintering the habitat needs of migrating and wintering waterfowl and shorebirds. This Waterfowl and objective shall be aimed at providing quality habitat that maintain or increase Migrating Shorebirds existing levels of migratory waterfowl and shorebird use.
