  • Draft Environmental Assessment Fishing Program for the Iowa River
    U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Draft Environmental Assessment Fishing Program for the Iowa River Corridor Project Port Louisa National Wildlife Refuge Regional Director Region 3, U. S. Fish and Wildlife Bloomington, MN 55111 Abstract: The United States Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) proposes to provide compatible fishing opportunities for game fish species on the Iowa River Corridor Project (IRCP) of Port Louisa National Wildlife Refuge located within 3 counties in east central Iowa. This draft environmental assessment evaluates three possible alternatives for fishing opportunities. The preferred alternative will establish compatible fishing opportunities while providing visitors with other priority public use opportunities i.e. hunting, wildlife observation, wildlife photography, environmental education and interpretation. The entire IRCP includes Service owned lands, Iowa Department of Natural Resources lands, and Natural Resources Conservation Service wetland easements. This environmental assessment involves only those lands owned in fee title by the Service. A fishing plan is being developed pursuant to the selection of an alternative. The general goals of a fishing program are to: 1. Provide safe and enjoyable fishing that is compatible with the IRCP purposes. 2. Provide quality angling opportunities that minimize conflict with other public use activities. 3. Contribute to a consistent regulatory framework across the patchwork of public and private holdings in the IRCP. 4. Provide opportunities to fish for species consistent with the laws and regulations of the State of Iowa that do not adversely affect local or regional populations, and are consistent with the 1997 National Wildlife Refuge System Improvement Act. For further information about the environmental assessment, please contact: Cathy Henry, Refuge Manager, Port Louisa National Wildlife Refuge, 10728 County Road X61, Wapello, Iowa 52653-9477.
