Yukon-Charley Rivers National Preserve » Yukon-Charley Rivers National Preserve Foundation Statement » Document List

Dear Interested Organization or Citizen:

On behalf of the Alaska Region of the National Park Service, I am pleased to announce the release of the Foundation Statement for Yukon-Charley Rivers National Preserve and enclose a copy for your information and reference. I anticipate this document will be useful for both the National Park Service as well as for those with an interest in Yukon-Charley Rivers National Preserve.

A Foundation Statement clearly and concisely articulates the purposes for which a park unit was established and identifies what is most important about that unit. It is grounded in the enabling legislation for that unit and based on knowledge acquired since its establishment. It contains a purpose statement and multiple significance statements and lists the fundamental resources and values that are critical to the significance of the unit. A Foundation Statement also identifies primary interpretive themes and key legal mandates, providing the framework needed to understand the historic and contemporary roles, conditions and issues surrounding the park unit.

We welcome your feedback on this Foundation Statement and invite you to use it as both a reference for fundamental information about Yukon-Charley Rivers National Preserve and for future park planning and management efforts. Your feedback would be most helpful if received by May 11th, 2012. Please provide it in writing to the Alaska Regional Office at the following address:
