Campus Improvements to the University of Wyoming - National Park Service Research Center Environmental Assessment

The purpose of this project is to improve essential campus facilities at the research center, whose mission is to promote and provide opportunities to conduct management-oriented and basic research in all fields of science on the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem. The research center is located north of Colter Bay Village within the AMK Ranch Historic District.

The UW-NPS Campus EA analyzes a range of alternatives. Alternative A (the no-action alternative) describes continuation of existing management and serves as a basis of comparison for the two action alternatives. Alternative B describes proposed improvements to water, wastewater and fire suppression systems and to the breakwater retaining wall near the boathouse, as well as other minor building improvements or updates. Alternative C (the NPS preferred alternative) contains all improvements included in alternative B, with the addition of a new dormitory and associated parking area.
