(KLZA) -- The Squaw Creek National Wildlife Refuge are in the process of participating in a Road Dust Abatement project on refuge roads in partnership with the US Geological Survey.
The United States Fish and Wildlife Service has prepared an Environmental Assessment to evaluate the effects associated with applying dust abatement products on the main entrance road at Squaw Creek National Wildlife Refuge in Mound City, MO.
The activities described within this document are associated with improvements to the portions of the tour loop on Squaw Creek NWR. The project involves treating the gravel road surface on the Refuge roads with various dust abatement products in partnership with the US Geological Survey (USGWS) Columbia Environmental Research Center as part of a Field Test entitled “Environmental Effects of Dust Suppressant Chemicals on Roadside Plant and Animal Communities”.
The Environmental Assessment is out for public review from May 8, 2014 through June 8, 2014. Anyone wishing to comment may do so dropping them off at the Refuge’s Visitor Center.
