Manzanita Lake Design Concept Plan
Lassen Volcanic National Park » Manzanita Lake Design Concept Plan » Document List
The National Park Service has developed a design concept plan (DCP) and environmental assessment (EA) for the Manzanita Lake Developed Area of Lassen Volcanic National Park and is seeking public input on the proposed alternatives.
The plan is needed to achieve the following goals:
Improve inadequate facilities in the Manzanita Lake Developed Area, including, but not limited to, campground and associated infrastructure, utility systems, and the day use area (i.e., boat launch, picnic area, and primary Manzanita Lake Trailhead).
Restore and rehabilitate historic structures threatened by overuse and degradation, and consider adaptive reuse, where appropriate.
Enhance connectivity between features in the Manzanita Lake Developed Area, including adaptive opportunities for modernization (i.e., technological advancements).
Implement requirements identified in the park's accessibility self-evaluation and transition plan and explore opportunities to incorporate additional discretionary improvements.
Ease roadway congestion and safety concerns, and improve visitor circulation and flow.
Improve recreation and visitor areas while protecting Manzanita Lake's natural resources and habitats from increased visitor use impacts and a changing climate.
The park has developed a set of design proposals. These site-specific designs are best understood by reading the descriptions and viewing the maps in the Lassen Volcanic National Park Manzanita Lake Developed Area StoryMap at https://storymaps.arcgis.com/collections/23f8cb4c458d41a7a79f63ec4b3a30d6
Public comments are invited through July 1, 2024.
