It’s going to be a busy spring in the state’s three major national parks. That was message from the three superintendents at meeting March 17 in Seattle.
Late this spring we can expect to see the draft environmental impact statement outlining options for the Carbon River Road at Mount Rainier National Park. Superintendent Dave Ubueruaga said it’s unlikely any proposal would include rebuilding the road all the way to the Ipsut Creek Campground. Public meetings will be held to discuss the options and take public comment.
At Olympic National Park, options for reopening the Dosewallips road should be released in mid-April. Acting superintendent Sue McGill said she expects the announcement of a permanent superintendent to be made in May. And the park’s general management plan should be finalized by early summer.
At North Cascades National Park, the staff is developing plans to celebrate the park’s 40th anniversary.
