Approach
Provide sustainable recreation options in response to changing demand.
Tactics
- Assess changes in use patterns and identify demand shifts.
- Identify use and site capacity thresholds in relation to other resources.
- Address user conflicts as use becomes concentrated in smaller areas.
- Adjust timing of actions such as road and trail openings and closures and special use permits based on resource concerns.
- Adjust capacity of recreation sites (e.g. enlarge campgrounds
- collect additional fees
- and install infrastructure such as fences
- signs
- and gates).
- Develop a strategy to invest and divest in recreation sites based on a sustainable recreation plan.
