AMACHE RESOURCE STUDY

The purpose of a special resource study is to evaluate Amache’s eligibility for designation as a new unit of the national park system. Iideas you share help the NPS better understand what the public values most about Amache, how much support exists for preservation, public use and potential designation, and what the public envisions for Amache’s future. Comments also help identify any issues or concerns which the NPS should understand during the study process. Feedback is welcome and encouraged from any member of the public.
