2013 Development Concept Plan

Lake Roosevelt National Recreation Area » 2013 Development Concept Plan » Document List

As part of the 2010 Shoreline Management Plan, a number of conceptual ideas were presented to address overcrowding and lower reservoir levels during the high visitation summer months. Currently, during the months of August and September, reservoir levels are 11 feet lower than they were when Lake Roosevelt NRA was designed. As a result we have seen a visitation shift away from smaller campgrounds and boat launches, to those areas that still allow access to the reservoir during these key months. In order to address this issue the Park's planning team has identified four potential projects that will accommodate increased visitation in key areas, and still provide the services visitors to Lake Roosevelt have come to expect.
