Draft General Management Plan/Environmental Assessment - March 2007

This plan examines three alternatives for managing Chickasaw National Recreation Area for the next 15–20 years. It also analyzes the impacts of implementing each of the alternatives. Alternative A (no action) consists of the continuation of existing Chickasaw National Recreation Area management and trends, and serves as the basis for evaluating the other alternatives. The concept for Chickasaw National Recreation Area management under alternative B (preferred) would be to improve selected natural and cultural resources while enhancing visitor facilities and interpretive opportunities. Management under alternative C would focus on the protection and restoration of natural and cultural resources. Alternative B is the NPS's preferred alternative.

This Draft General Management Plan / Environmental Assessment will be released to the public for a 60-day comment period. The NPS will determine whether the environmental consequences of the proposed action require preparation of an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) or a
Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI).
