Natural Resource Management

Natural resource management focuses on a scientific and technical understanding of resources and ecology. It deals with managing the way in which people and natural landscapes interact. Our program focuses on the management of land, water, soil, plant, and animal resources within the Parks’ system. Our goal is to balance public access with science-based management to ensure that the resources are adequately protected while providing consistently high-quality of life for this and future generations.
