State hatcheries provide over 1 million black bass to Arkansas fisheries
LITTLE ROCK - Commissioners from the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission today formally agreed to build the Witt Stephens, Jr. Central Arkansas Nature Center on a site in the Julius Breckling Riverfront Park between the amphitheater and the Interstate 30 Arkansas River Bridge. The site was donated by the City of Little Rock and will require the city to make the location ready to build, at no cost to the AGFC, within six months.

A formal signing ceremony was held during the commission meeting. The new nature center will be the fourth and final nature center built by the AGFC. Nature centers in Pine Bluff and Jonesboro are already open and a third location in Fort Smith is under construction. After the AGFC accepts the site as ready to build, the city will lease the site to the agency for $1 per year for 99 years.

AGFC director Scott Henderson praised the city and its leaders for providing the location. “I think it’s a perfect fit for our needs,” Henderson said. Construction on the nature center in Little Rock should begin shortly after the site is made ready.
