The public comment period on the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (Refuge)
Draft Revised Comprehensive Conservation Plan (CCP) and Draft
Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) starts on Monday, August 15. 

The CCP is the document that guides long-term management of the Refuge.
We encourage you to share your thoughts with us. The most useful comments
will be about specific content in the Draft CCP/EIS. Please tell us what
you do or do not like about the vision, a particular goal, one of the
alternatives, etc. We are also looking for important points we may have
missed. Please keep in mind that comments do not constitute a vote -- we
are looking for quality, not quantity. 

The entire Draft CCP/EIS is on our website
(http://arctic.fws.gov/ccp.htm), as is a 20-page summary booklet.  A
limited number of CDs, and an even more limited number of 2-volume bound
sets, are available on a first-come first-served basis. Please visit our
website to submit comments using the web, for more information about the
CCP and the CCP planning process, or to request a copy of the CCP/EIS. 

You can also submit comments by email at [log in to unmask], by fax
to (907) 456-0428, or you can mail comments to:
