Dear Friends,

The National Park Service has prepared this Record of Decision on the Final Environmental Impact Statement and Assessment of Effect concerning modifications to the Burr Trail in Capitol Reef National Park. The proposed action is the product of the environmental compliance process that fulfills the May 30, 2001 settlement agreement that established a mutually agreeable procedure among the National Park Service, the state of Utah, and Garfield County, Utah to address road modifications that Garfield County would like to make to a one-mile segment of the Burr Trail within Capitol Reef National Park. This Record of Decision includes a description of the background of the project, a statement of the decision made, synopses of other alternatives considered, the basis for the decision, findings on impairment of park resources and values, a description of the environmentally preferred alternative, a listing of measures to minimize environmental harm, and an overview of public and agency involvement in the decision-making process.
