National Wildlife Refuges in Rhode Island

Rhode Island has 5 national wildlife refuges, all run by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service: Block Island National Wildlife Refuge, John H. Chafee National Wildlife Refuge, Ninigret National Wildlife Refuge, Sachuest Point National Wildlife Refuge, and Trustom Pond National Wildlife Refuge.

Each refuge sets its own closures and fire rules. Each refuge's page lists the fire restriction orders and closures on record for it, from the refuge's own fws.gov alerts, re-checked every six hours. Hunting and fishing seasons and limits are the refuge regulation's and Nevada's: each page links them, and none are restated here.
