Stakeholder Report

Providing Quality Recreation Opportunities in the NRA

This report highlights the improvements that are taking place in the Shasta-Trinity National Recreation Area (NRA) as a result of the NRA Fee Retention Project (FRP). I am very excited about what we have accomplished to date. We've overcome enormous challenges and produced impressive results.

2000 was a busy and productive year in the NRA. Thanks to the participation of many of our partners and the extra effort exhibited by many NRA employees, we implemented some top priority Fee Retention Projects that are providing numerous benefits for our visitors. These projects would not have been possible without the Fee Retention Project.

Current Recreation Fee Demonstration Program legislation is authorized through September 2002. Congress will continue to monitor the success of the program.

We will continue to promote partnerships that provide opportunities to leverage all sources of funding, including fee retention, to maximize benefits, maintain improvements, and provide showcase quality recreation opportunities in the NRA.

Sincerely,

Kristy Cottini

District Ranger
