Accessibility Self-Evaluation and Transition Plan (SETP)

The National Park Service is seeking public feedback on Olympic National Park's Accessibility Self-Evaluation and Transition Plan. The plan identifies current in-park barriers for people with disabilities, offers recommendations for improving accessibility, and proposes timeframes to implement changes. The plan is available for public review and comment from August 1, 2024, through August 31, 2024, here on the park planning website.

An interdisciplinary team created the plan by evaluating park facilities, services, activities, and programs. The team included experts in planning, design, construction, interpretation, natural and cultural resources, visitor safety, maintenance, and accessibility. Their goals were to: document existing park accessibility barriers for people with disabilities; provide an effective approach for upgrading facilities, services, activities, and programs; and bolster a culture that supports universal access.

The plan offers management recommendations only. National Environmental Policy Act and additional compliance will be conducted before any recommended action is implemented.

The Accessibility Self-Evaluation and Transition Plan is available here on the NPS Planning, Environment and Public Comment website (https://parkplanning.nps.gov/OLYMSETP). Online comments may be submitted by clicking "Open for Comment" on the left side of the screen. Comments will be accepted through 11:59pm Mountain Time on August 31, 2024.
