Draft Wild and Scenic River Study
On December 19, 2014 through Public Law 113-291, Congress directed the National Park Service (NPS) to study five creeks in the Oregon Caves National Monument and Preserve for possible inclusion into the Wild and Scenic Rivers (WSR) system under Section 5(a) of the Wild and Scenic Rivers Act (WSRA). The creeks listed in the legislation are Cave Creek (downstream of River Styx), Lake Creek, No Name Creek, Panther Creek, and Upper Cave Creek (upstream of River Styx). The NPS also studied Waterfelt Creek through Section 5(d)(1) of the WSRA. The study provides an analysis of these stream segments using the wild and scenic rivers system criteria. Comments on the study findings are invited.
