Master Plan Preliminary Draft |

APPENDIX: TEAM MEMBERS, STAFF, AND CONSULTANTS
Team Members
Chairman:
Charles S. Marshall, Associate Director, Southeast Region, National Park Service, Richmond, Virginia
Vice-Chairman:
W. Drew Chick, Jr., Park Planner, Eastern Service Center, National Park Service, Washington, D. C.
Members:
John A. Aubuchon, Superintendent, Mammoth Cave National Park, Kentucky
Robert H. Bendt, Superintendent, Mammoth Cave National Park, Kentucky
*Thomas C. Barr, Jr., Professor of Zoology, University of Kentucky, Lexington
William B. Holton, Retired Scientist, Chevy Chase, Maryland

Bassett Maguire, Jr., Associate Professor of Zoology, University of Texas at Austin
*Dr. Barr prefers a Mammoth Cave Ridge site for peripheral development of additional facilities to meet the increased visitation, with retention of existing facilities (without further expansion) in the vicinity of the Historic Entrance. He believes that peripheral development in the Frozen Niagara area would be (a) far less destructive of park resources and (b) far less costly in terms of required Congressional appropriation of public funds. He feels that the Big Woods area, Woolsey Valley, and extensive portions of the Flint Ridge cave system meet the criteria for wilderness designation, and that the natural flow of water from all of the springs on Flint Ridge should be restored at the earliest possible opportunity.
