Synopsis

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) and U.S. Army (Army) have negotiated a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) under which much of the former Savanna Army Depot (Depot) in Northwestern Illinois will become Lost Mound National Wildlife Refuge (Lost Mound Refuge). The area is notable for its immense grasslands (4000 acres) and bottomland forest (5000 acres) habitats. Lost Mound Refuge supports endangered Higginsii Pearly Mussel (Lampsilis higginsii) and the threatened Bald Eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus). The Service has negotiated a Cooperative Agreement with the Illinois Department of Natural Resources (IDNR) for joint management of the area.
