Restoration of the Northern Dune Additions to Humboldt Bay National Wildlife Refuge

Restoration of the Northern Dune Additions to Humboldt Bay National Wildlife Refuge

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service proposes to restore 300 acres of coastal dunes through the removal of European beach grass, yellow bush lupine, and invasive annual grasses followed by revegetation with native species. The restoration of coastal dunes is needed to conserve and restore globally rare dune and dune forest habitats, associated native plant and animal species, and to support recovery of threatened, endangered, and endemic species that depend on these rare habitats. The proposed project would extend dune restoration completed at the Lanphere and Ma-le'I Dunes Units of the Humboldt Bay National Wildlife Refuge.
