The U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service has released its plans
and final environmental impact
statement on the National Wild-
life Refuge for the Canaan
Valley of Tucker County. If
approved, the Wildife Refuge
will permanently protect some
28,000 acres of boreal wetlands
and surrounding areas, habitat
for many unusual wildlife spe-
cies such as the goshawk, snow-
shoe .hare. black bear. great
blue heron, eagle, woodcock
and Canada goose as well as
many rare plants common to
the marshes and bogs of the
Valley. The Refuge as proposed
will also provide much needed
tax revenue to Tucker County
and additional recreational opp-
ortunities to benefit the local
economy.
Leading the effort to see the
Valley protected as a National
Wilfuge is the Canaan
Vance, a recently for-
me(LtroaliUont6f state and nat-
iordll cortmmwation and groups
and individuals. Steve Bradley,
President of the Alliance. m
explaining some of the merits of
the Canaan Refuge points out
that wetlands in the United
States "have been drained and
damned so profusely that the
Federal government has had to
intervene and pass laws to
prevent their total destruction.
The Wildlife Refuge in Canaan
Valley will protect the Valley's
wetlands which include many
acres of swamps, marshes,
bogs and wet meadows and the
many animals, plants and" birds
they support while allowing
traditional land uses such as
framing to continue in the Vall
ey."
"No homes or businesses in
the Valley will need to be
relocated for the Refuge," st-
ates David Harris. USFWS Staff
Biologist in Elkins and author of
the impact studies on the Can-
aan Refuge, "and as a National
Wildlife Refuge, fishing and
hunting and other recreational
uses of the Valley will cont-
inue." Harris explains that
some of the recreational uses nf
the Valley will, in fact, be
improved as a result of Ref-
uge management. "Game
management will in some cases
increase wildlife populations."
tie points out that a wide
variety of cultural, educational,
scientific and other recreational
uses such as wildlife observ-
ation, photography, hiking, can-
oeing and cross country skiing
will also be provided by the
refuge. "Facilities and expert-
ise for environmental education
for school-age children and in-
service environmental edueat-
inn for teachers as well as
increased public visitation fac-
ilities will be available. Trails
and boardwalks will be provid-
ed to increase access to the
northern area of the Valley. In
addition," he says, "some $380.
000 a year in special Refuge
revenue sharing funds will
come to Tucker County when
the Refuge is established."
The Canaan Valley, at 3,20O
feet elevation, is the highest
Valley of its size east of the
Mississippi River and the lar-
gest shrub swamp wetland in
the Eastern United States. As
illustrative of the Valley's un-
ique vegetation. Dr. Maurice
Brooks, WVU Professor Emer-
itus of wildlife biology, points
out that because of the valley's
high elevation and wet nature, it
supports "the largest assemb-
lage of truly northern plants
this far south in the United
States. It is much larger than
any similar area in West Vir-
ginia." lie explains further that
the Valley has the largest stand
of balsam fir in West Virginia
and that quaking aspen, a tree
species typical of Canada and
northern Minnnsnta, occurs b-
undantly in Canaan. "Heaths,
sedges and other wetland
species of the Valley are also
noteworthy," Dr. Brooks ex-
plains. "These include creeping
snowberry, teaberry, cotton-
grass, velvet-leaf blueberry,
high bush cranberry and the
round- leaved sundew. All rare
species in West Virginia.
"There is no other like it in
the Eastern United States," Dr.
Brooks concludes, "and, truly,
no area in West Virginia is more
deserving of protection as a
National Wildlife Refuge than
the Canaan Valley. Considering
the kind of high-quality opport-
unities that would be made
available so close to home at
this time of gasoline shortages,
it is about time we get moving
on the establishment of a wild-
life refuge in West Virginia.
Linda Elkinton, Co- Coordin-
ator for the Alliance, emphas-
izes the need for support of the
Canaan Valley Refuge plan if it
is to be established. She says
that currently, both West Vir-
ginia Seantors (Seantors Byrd
and Randolph) are "waivering
in their support for the Refuge
as proposed. They need to hear
from people who support the
Refuge." She explains that lett-
ers are also important to Sec-
retary of Interior Cecil Andrus.
The Fish and Wildlife Service is
a division of the Department of its wetlands, plant
Interior and "Secretary Andrus resources remain ava
will play a key role in the the citizens of the
Refuge decision." Elkinton ates. Copies of the
