we are concerned that many people will not be able to meet our

September 15, 2007.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The National Wildlife Refuge System 
Administration Act of 1966, as amended by the Refuge Improvement Act of 
1997 (16 U.S.C. 668dd et seq.), requires each refuge to develop and 
implement a CCP. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service published FR Doc. 
E7-9281 in the Federal Register on May 15, 2007, announcing 
availability of the Draft Revised Comprehensive Conservation Plan and 
Environmental Assessment for Kanuti National Wildlife Refuge. The 
document identified a review period ending on July 16, 2007. Because 
summer is such a busy time in Alaska, we are concerned that many people 
would not be able to meet our deadline; therefore we announce extension 
of the review period until September 15, 2007.
