  Chris Canfield of the Audubon Society of North Carolina called the closures a necessary step to protect endangered piping plovers and other shorebirds in one of their few refuges on the heavily developed Outer Banks.He said studies suggest the economic damage will be limited.
  ...
  Canfield, of the Audubon Society, said he regretted that some local businesses would suffer because of the closures.But he said government studies indicate four-wheel-drive fishermen represent a small percentage of Hatteras tourism and that less beach-driving would make the area more attractive to other visitors.
  
  Canfield said the Park Service could have avoided this moment had it settled on a plan to protect the birds years ago, rather than ad-libbing its policies to try to please all sides.

  Chris Canfield, vice president of Audubon North Carolina, is guardedly optimistic regarding the appeal.Canfield's confidence is spawned by the broad, diverse coalition opposed to the OLF."This opposition to the OLF cuts across all political and environmental spectrums," Canfield said.He noted that opponents included NRA members, private property rights proponents, sportsmen, birders, local governments and environmental groups.
  ...
  But Canfield is counting on the Navy's own assessment again.According to Canfield the Navy's own records clearly show that an OLF near PLNWR is not necessary for national security.

  ...
  Canfield, whose organization sued successfully in federal court over the Navy's review of the Beaufort-Washington site, urged the Navy to collect more data on bird counts at or near the six sites and do research on whether jet noise could harm small birds and not just migratory birds.
