National Wildlife Refuge System Management and Policy Act of 1994

Summary

National Wildlife Refuge System Management and Policy Act of 1993 - Amends the National Wildlife Refuge System Administration Act of 1966 to prohibit the Secretary of the Interior (Secretary) from initiating or permitting a new use of a refuge or expanding or extending an existing use unless it is compatible with the purposes of the System and the refuge. Allows existing uses of such refuge system lands that have been determined to be compatible under this Act or the Refuge Recreation Act to continue under specified conditions. Ceases such use and requires revocation of any permits for it within five years after the enactment of this Act unless the Secretary determines that such use is compatible. Directs the Secretary, acting through the Director of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, to establish and maintain a formal process for determinations of compatibility. Directs the Secretary to prepare and periodically revise: (1) a comprehensive plan for the System; and (2) a comprehensive conservation plan for each refuge or ecologically related complex of refuges in the System, except those in Alaska. Grants the Secretary emergency power to suspend any activity in any refuge in the National Wildlife Refuge System if such activity constitutes an imminent danger to the health and safety of any wildlife population, refuge, or to public health and safety. Authorizes appropriations
