SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On July 18, 2018, The Pohatcong Township 
Council voted unanimously by resolution to demonstrate its support for 
adding segment C to the Musconetcong Wild and Scenic River designation 
(16 U.S.C. 1274(a)). The resolution satisfies the local support 
suitability requirement pursuant to Public Law 109-452, Section 5(d), 
which authorizes the Secretary of the Interior to add the additional 
segment upon a finding that there is adequate local support for 
designating the additional river segment and upon publication of notice 
in the Federal Register. Designating river segment C will add 4.3 miles 
to the river's designation, for a total of 28.5 miles. The Musconetcong 
River was designated into the National Wild and Scenic Rivers System on 
December 22, 2006. The segment will be managed as a recreational river, 
consistent with the Musconetcong River Management Plan and the 
provisions of Public Law 109-452.

Assistant Secretary for Fish and Wildlife and Parks.
