In keeping with the Wild and Scenic Rivers Act, the National Park Service (NPS) is currently preparing the Tuolumne Wild and Scenic River Comprehensive Management Plan and Draft Environmental Impact Statement (Tuolumne River Plan/DEIS) to guide the long-term management of the 54-mile, Tuolumne Wild and Scenic River corridor within Yosemite National Park. The draft is expected to be released in the summer of 2012. When compete, the final plan will:
• Describe existing resource conditions within the wild and scenic river
corridor including outstandingly remarkable values, water quality, and
free-flowing condition;
• Identify existing adverse impacts or degradation and describe goals,
objectives, and actions for restoring river values;
• Present a monitoring plan to ensure ongoing protection of river values;
• Present a variety of alternatives for the current and future management
and development of lands and facilities, including transportation,
lodging, camping, parking, park facilities, employee housing, and
concessions;
• Identify the kinds and amounts of visitor uses that are appropriate and
that also protect river values;
• Address in-stream flow requirements; and
• Reflect a collaborative approach with all stakeholders.
