Educate users and protect resources

Approach

Tactics

Redirect public to less sensitive cultural areas.

Education and interpretation to inform the public of why these resources are important. Engage user groups.

Direct protection with physical barriers

fencing

vegetation screening

access management.

Sensitivity

Temperature changes may lead to increased recreational use- leading to greater human impacts on cultural resources and sites (looting/collecting/inadvertent impacts from users to cultural heritage resources)

Strategy

Increase communication and collaboration
