Cedar Breaks Ranger Station Environmental Assessment

This EA evaluates the potential impacts on park resources and visitor experience from the proposed construction and use of a new ranger station at CEBR.The building would provide an adequate, centralized office space for employees; a weather proof location for interpretive programs for visitors; and a facility that could be used through out the year.Existing offices within the monument are currently in a one room apartment meant for seasonal housing and in a storage shed.There isn't a location in the monument where interpretive programs can be given sheltered from inclement weather. And the there are no buildings on the monument that can be used during winter.The EA evaluates two alternatives.The no action alternative describes the current condition with the ranger station not being built.The existing one room apartment and the storage shed would continue to be used for office space.The preferred alternative consists of constructing a new ranger station that would serve both visitors and CEBR employees.The building would be 2,534-square-feet with both heated indoor space (including storage shed) and developed outdoor space.The total area of disturbance for the entire project would be approximately 1-acre.We invite you to review and comment on the EA at this time.Comments must be submitted by February 15, 2010.Before including your address, phone number, e-mail address, or other personal identifying information in your comment, you should be aware that your entire comment – including your personal identifying information – may be made publicly available at any time.Although you can ask is in your comment to withhold your personal identifying information from public review, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to do so.
