Mississippi Trustees Support Fire Management Activities at Grand Bay National Wildlife Refuge
Wildland fire crews from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Gulf Coast Complex Grand Bay National Wildlife Refuge Student Conservation Association recently burned 187 acres of mixed forest, shrub and grass lands as part of ongoing fire management activities at the refuge.
This project will restore and enhance marine, coastal, estuarine, and riparian habitats for the benefit of resources injured by the Deepwater Horizon oil spill. The primary objective of habitat restoration is to re-establish native vegetation in the target habitats, including coastal marsh, savannas and flatwoods, forested freshwater scrub-shrub, and freshwater marsh.
