| dc.description | In 1971, R. Sage Murphy, then director of the Institute of Water Resources, prepared a proposal entitled "Environmental Planning for an Alaskan Water-Oriented Recreational Area," which was submitted to the then Office of Water Resources Research (OWRR) and the Alaska Division of Parks under the matching grant program of OWRR. Funding was denied in 1972. Robert F. Carlson, the new IWR director, urged D. W. Smith to rewrite the proposal. Subsequently, OWRR provided funding for one-half of the project in 1973. In a letter dated May 18, 1973, the director of the Alaska Division of Parks stated he had set aside the necessary funds for the project. On July 1, 1973, the project officially commenced. | en_US |
| dc.description.abstract | The principal objective of this study was to detail the procedures, methods, alternatives, and considerations necessary for the development of environmental management programs for Alaskan water-oriented recreational areas. Major emphasis was to be placed on the Nancy Lake area. As procedures for evaluation were to be used at the Nancy Lake State Recreation Area as they were developed, it was hoped that a valuable data base could be established for the area. Such information could be extremely valuable in making management decision, in monitoring changes that may occur, and in modifying plans for the area. | en_US |
