<br />j <br /> <br />The refuge will be managed to ensure continued <br />functioning of the wetland values. Supervised public access <br />to the area will be encouraged for educational purposes and <br />enjoyments. The habitat and wildlife species will be managed <br />to encourage waterfowl, wildlife, and fishery reproduction. <br /> <br />The value of the area has come to the attention of a <br />number of groups and agencies. Initially, the South Routt <br />County School District has taken the opportunity to use the <br />refuge for environmental studies and outdoor education. <br />A partnership was formed between our schools, DPOR, DOW, <br />Ducks unlimited, UYWCD, the u.S. Forest Service, the u.S. <br />Bureau of Land Management, Yampa Valley Fly Fishers, and the <br />Yampa Valley Alliance. The goals of this partnership are to: <br /> <br />. maintain a functioning wetland area, <br />. provide opportunities to the public for outdoor <br />education and recreation, and <br />. ensure accessibility to physically challenged users. <br /> <br />This wildlife observation area is indeed a success story <br />in which proponents of a project in cooperation with <br />governmental agencies have created a project which is a <br />benefit to our environment and our local economy. <br /> <br />John R.
