Save the Date for the Merced River Plan Spring Workshops
The Merced River Plan (MRP) team will host a series of six workshops this spring. These workshops are a chance to find out more about the conditions of the river's Outstandingly Remarkable Values (ORVs) and management concerns that will need to be addressed in a successful Merced River Plan. Each workshop will focus on a different topic such as transportation, user capacity, and the Merced River's ORVs.
