Akers Canoe Rental Concessioner Land Assignment

Ozark National Scenic Riverways » Akers Canoe Rental Concessioner Land Assignment » Document List

Ozark National Scenic Riverways Superintendent, William N. Black, invites the public to review and comment on a proposal designating a land assignment for the Akers Concessioner operations. An environmental assessment (EA) for the project proposal has been developed, and will be available for public review and comment from March 20, 2013 through April 22, 2013.

The park's objective is to designate a single land assignment sized and appropriately located to meet the operational needs of the Akers Canoe Rental as required for the new concession contract. A clearly delineated land assignment will allow park management to effectively manage the contract associated with the concession's activity. The selected and designed land assignment site will improve the visitor experience and promote safety around the Ranger Station, Day Use Area and Concession's Store by reducing and managing congestion.

The EA is available electronically for review and comment online by visiting http://parkplanning.nps.gov, the website for the NPS's Planning Environment and Public Comment (PEPC) system. Comments may also be sent to:
