APPENDIX A: COST SUMMARY

The park's physical facilities, roads, buildings, and utility systems have been developing since man first entered the area that is now the park. Both government and concessioners have built, torn down, relocated, and rebuilt facilities as demand, efficiency, and environmental and economic conditions changed during this period. This plan proposes a shift in the location of some of the present facilities and recognizes that other facilities will be rehabilitated or rebuilt as they become worn out of obsolete. Many of the new facilities that will be provided in new locations will replace existing facilities that have used up most, if not all, of their economic lives. New facilities never before provided are also proposed. Whenever possible, new facilities will be built when most or all of the economic usefulness of the replaced facility has been realized.

Cost estimates are:

Concessioner facilities that are new or that are relocated. (The specific costs to be assumed by the government and by private concessioners with an appropriate assignment of possessory interest will be the subject of contract negotiations.)

$25,000,000

Government facilities that are new or that are relocated.

$86,000,000

Government facilities that remain and are rehabilitated.

$44,000,000

APPENDIX B: PHASING PLAN

Implementation of the actions called for in this plan will occur over approximately 10 years. The following graph shows the relative intensity of effort which will be spent on the various areas of the park in relation to this time frame. All new facility development will require several phases, beginning with detailed design plans and ending with actual construction.
