The National Park Service is accepting public comment on the draft General Management Plan/ Environmental Impact Statement until July 30. The plan evaluates four alternatives for the future management of the Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area over the next 15-20 years. It also defines the strategies that will be implemented to ensure the park is enjoyed by a diverse group of visitors while protecting park resources. Written comments are being accepted by FAX
