Foundation Document

Whiskeytown National Recreation Area » Foundation Document » Document List

Dear Neighbors, Friends, and Partners:

I am pleased to announce that the National Park Service (NPS) has completed a Foundation Document for planning and management at Whiskeytown National Recreation Area.

A Foundation Document involves revisiting a national park unit's core mission and significance, most important resources and values, and the interpretive themes that tell the park's important stories. Although the Foundation Document is not a decision-making document and does not include actions or management strategies, it describes a shared understanding of what is most important about the park. In this capacity, the Foundation Document will reestablish the underlying guidance for future management and planning decisions for the National Park Service at Whiskeytown National Recreation Area.

Because many of Whiskeytown's original NPS planning documents are dated, preparing the Foundation Document was the first step for considering the park's future planning and study needs.

Your voice is important to us. I thank all of our frineds and partners that contributed to this planning effort.

Thank you for your interest in the national treasure we call Whiskeytown National Recreation Area. As we approach the 50th anniversary of the park in 2015, I look forward to continuing to work with you as we plan for its future.

Sincerely,
Jim Milestone
Superintendent
