dc.description.abstract |
The US Forest Service manages over 7 million acres of areas protected either by Congress through legislation
or by the Executive Branch via proclamation under the authority of the Antiquities Act. These
sites are singled out for their outstanding examples of plant and animal communities, recreation settings,
geological features, scenic grandeur, or other special attributes. These iconic places are often culturally
important to tribes and local residents. Recreation and other uses of iconic places generate economic
activity and support local communities. Despite their importance, there has been little research on the
current conditions and needs of these places. This project examines current conditions and management of
iconic places as well as management needs to sustain these places for the future. |
