A Penny For Your Thoughts… Yosemite National Park Wants To Hear Your Ideas

November 17, 2009.

Do you have an opinion about the Merced River? The National Park Service and Yosemite National Park are seeking the public’s ideas for a plan to protect the Merced River, which runs through the heart of Yosemite Valley.

In response to public comments the public scoping period has been extended to February 4, 2010.

According to Ranger Kari Cobb the Park is seeking public comment on how to preserve the pristine beauty of the Merced River but at the same time make it available for visitors to enjoy.

Once the scoping period ends the comments will be evaluated and several plans will be selected for public acceptance. One that process is completed whatever plan is chosen will then be initiated.
