ACTION: Final rule. SUMMARY: We, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service), open seven National Wildlife Refuges (NWRs) that are currently closed to hunting and sport fishing. In addition, we expand hunting and sport fishing at 70 other NWRs, and add pertinent station-specific regulations for other NWRs that pertain to migratory game bird hunting, upland game hunting, big game hunting, and sport fishing for the 2019–2020 season. We also formally open 15 units of the National Fish Hatchery System to hunting and sport fishing. We also add pertinent station- specific regulations that pertain to migratory game bird hunting, upland game hunting, big game hunting, and sport fishing at these 15 National Fish Hatcheries (NFHs) for the 2019–2020 season. This rule includes global administrative updates to every NWR entry in our refuge- specific regulations and the reorganization of general public use regulations. We remove approximately 2,100 regulations that will have no impact on the administration of hunting and sport fishing within the National Wildlife Refuge System. We also simplify over 2,900 refuge- specific regulations to comply with a Presidential mandate to adhere to plain language standards 1 and to reduce the regulatory burden on the public.

  • Transformation of an Industrial Brownfield Into an Ecological Buffer for Michigan’S Only Ramsar Wetland of International Importance
    OPEN ACCESS www. wsforum.org Article Transformation of an Industrial Brownfield into an Ecological Buffer for Michigan’s only Ramsar Wetland of International Importance John Hartig 1,* and Allison Krueger 2 E-Mails: [email protected]; [email protected] *Author to whom correspondence should be addressed; E-Mail: [email protected]; Tel.: +1-734-692-7608; Fax: +1-734-692-7603 Received: / Accepted: / Published: Abstract: The Detroit River International Wildlife Refuge spans 77 km along the Detroit River and western Lake Erie, and is the only international wildlife refuge in North America. A key unit of the refuge is the 166-ha Humbug Marsh that represents the last kilometer of natural shoreline on the U.S. mainland of the river and Michigan’s only “Wetland of International Importance” designated under the 1971 International Ramsar Convention. Adjacent to Humbug Marsh is an 18-ha former industrial manufacturing site (now called the Refuge Gateway) that is being remediated and restored as an ecological buffer for Humbug Marsh and the future home of the refuge’s visitor center. Restoration and redevelopment activities have included: cleanup and capping of contaminated lands; daylighting a creek and constructing a retention pond and emergent wetland to treat storm water prior to discharge to the Detroit River; restoring coastal wetland, riparian buffer, and upland habitats; and constructing two roads, hiking/biking trails, and a kayak/canoe landing to offer wildlife-compatible public uses that allow visitors to experience this internationally- recognized natural resource. This project has been described as transformational for the region by restoring an industrial brownfield into high quality wildlife habitat that expands the ecological buffer of a Ramsar site.

  • FALL 2011/WINTER 2012 from the Public Have Been Addressed and the Plan Is Undergoing Final Revisions Needed
    HUNT PLAN UPDATE Steve Dushane, Assistant Refuge Manager The Detroit River International Wildlife Refuge hunting plan and environmental The WildSide assessment was made available for public A newsletter for the supporters of the International Wildlife Refuge Alliance and the Detroit River International Wildlife Refuge comment in 2011. Many of the comments FALL 2011/WINTER 2012 from the public have been addressed and the plan is undergoing final revisions needed. The next step will be to work on the exact language to be placed in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR). It is our hope that the hunting plan will be published in the CFR in early 2012 and that hunting on the refuge will be approved by fall 2012. The Refuge is very excited and looking forward to offering hunting as an approved public use in the near future.
