Hakalau Forest National Wildlife Refuge Comprehensive Conservation Plan J-4 Appendix J. CCP Team Members
Hakalau Forest National Wildlife Refuge Comprehensive Conservation Plan Appendix K. Summary of Public Involvement Public involvement was sought throughout the development of the CCP. Public involvement began in 2009 with the scoping process and publication of our notice of intent. In February 2009, we mailed approximately 150 copies of Planning Update 1 to interested individuals, local conservation and interest groups, research organizations, Native Hawaiian organizations and local, State, and Federal government agencies and elected officials. Planning Update 1 was available at two public open house meetings in March 2009. It was also posted on the Refuge’s website (http://www.fws.gov/hakalauforest/planning.html) and the Service’s Pacific Region refuge planning website (http://www.fws.gov/pacific/planning/main/docs/HI-PI/docshakalau.htm). A news release was issued announcing the open house meetings. An interagency scoping meeting was also held July 2009, as well as briefings for government officials such as the Mayor of Hawai‘i County. In Planning Update 1, we described the CCP planning process; Refuge purposes; draft wildlife, habitat, and public use goals; and preliminary issues to be considered in the CCP. In Planning Update 2 (made available in October 2009 and similarly circulated as the first update) we summarized the comments we received and listed primary management issues we used to draft alternatives and refine draft goals and objectives. We also included draft vision statements for both units. In the last stage of CCP development, Planning Update 3, which announced the Draft CCP/EA availability during the public comment period and summarized the alternatives, was circulated similarly to previous planning updates. In addition, the public comment period was announced through a news release, holding a public open house meeting in Hilo on August 25, 2010, posting the draft document on both the Hakalau planning website and main Pacific Region refuge planning website, notice of availability in the Federal Register, and email and related list-serve announcements. Public Scoping Sessions The public scoping period for this CCP opened February 25, 2009, and ended March 27, 2009. Two public meetings were held, in Hilo and Captain Cook, Hawai‘i, on March 3, 2009, and March 4, 2009, respectively. At the meetings, Refuge staff explained the CCP planning process; the Refuge purposes, vision, and management; and preliminary management issues, concerns, and opportunities. Refuge staff also answered questions from attendees and received written comments. Twelve private citizens and representatives from various organizations attended the meetings and commented on the issues and opportunities we presented. Six written responses were received from individuals or organizations during scoping. The comments we received addressed broad or long-range issues and very specific or detailed strategies that could be used to achieve biological or public use objectives. Summaries of the issues identified and Service responses in Planning Update 2 follow. How can we best protect endangered forest birds and the nēnē? The primary purpose of the Refuge is protection of endangered species. We manage Refuge resources to ensure high-quality habitat is available for endangered species, especially forest birds. Drawing on 20 years of Refuge management experience at the HFU, we have included objectives and strategies in the Draft CCP/EA for maintaining and enhancing native habitat communities to provide the life-history needs of Hakalau Forest NWR’s endangered species.
