Caneel Bay Redevelopment and Management Environmental Assessment
The National Park Service (NPS) is considering the redevelopment and management of the Caneel Bay area at Virgin Islands National Park (Park or VINP). The NPS intends to establish a management strategy for the approximately 150-acre property currently operated under a Retained Use Estate (RUE) expiring on September 30, 2023. The NPS prepared the Caneel Bay Area Redevelopment and Management Environmental Assessment (EA) in accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) to analyze potential impacts of an alternative for redevelopment and an alternative for no redevelopment. The EA is available for a 30-day public review and the NPS will host a series of public meetings to share information about the future vision for the Caneel Bay area and hear your valuable feedback.
The Caneel Bay area is vital to the heritage, progress, and enjoyment of St. John and the U.S. Virgin Islands. The NPS wants to make certain the future of the Caneel Bay area reflects the voices of the communities the many visitors to the site, and the Park. The interests and issues related to the future of the Caneel Bay area are broad and complex, and as such, the NPS values your comments. We thank you for your participation in this planning process up to this point. The public comments have assisted the planning team in refining alternatives and assessing potential impacts. We look forward to hearing from you as we strive to create a shared vision for the future redevelopment and management of the Caneel Bay area.
