Richard Nugent leads the Tinicum National Wildlife Refuge under a Washington approved master plan to expand the 900 acres already in refuge and 300 acres authorized for acquisition. The plan prioritizes preservation, allows fishing at regulated spots, bans hunting, and links with state, federal, and local agencies while offering trails and a canoe ramp for public enjoyment. Nugent cites ongoing coordination with diverse authorities and notes no two days are the same.
