<br />ECOLOGICAL SYSTEM- <br />SPECIFIC OBJECTIVES <br /> <br />These objectives, in contrast to those listed <br />for each park, view both parks in the larger <br />context of the region of which they are a <br />part. The parks are viewed without regard <br />to administrative boundaries. As with the <br />specific objectives listed above they can be <br />resource-, geographic-, or issue-specific, <br />however the issue in most cases will <br />determine the region of the ecosystem. <br /> <br />The extent of the ecosystem should include <br />those resources, issues, and items that <br />influence park resources or are influenced by <br />park resources or park management <br />activities. As a whole, objectives are <br />interrelated and interdependent. The specific <br />objectives provide a basis for allocating <br />resources and define the partners for <br />cooperative management efforts. Such <br />efforts are increasingly important as <br />agencies, counties, communities, and other <br />entities have greater impacts on each other <br />and their environments through growth, <br />planning, and other actions. Cooperative <br />efforts assist in recognizing and addressing <br />concerns and areas of mutual benefit and are <br />invaluable in the planning. <br /> <br />· ECO: SOCIOLOGICAL - The overall <br />objective is to manage both parks in the <br />context of their socioeconomic setting. The <br />parks should continue to expand partnerships <br />(federal, state, local, private) to exchange <br />information, to ensure protection of natural <br />and cultural features and resources, and to <br />develop a complete and consistent visitor <br />information package and a variety of <br />information distribution points and <br />programs. The parks will work with other <br />entities involved with tourism industries to <br />focus, emphasize, and coordinate <br />recreational and interpretive opportunities in <br /> <br />24 <br /> <br />, <br />"1,'., ., <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />marketing what the parks offer in the wider <br />regional context. <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />Conditions to be attained: <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />1) Parks are engaged in a partnership with other <br />entities to provide information to regional <br />visitors and to facilitate protection of resources. <br /> <br />2) Infrastructure and commercial activities are <br />coordinated with entities outside of park <br />boundaries. <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />3) Socioeconomic ecosystem stakeholders have a <br />good understanding of visitor characteristics. <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />4) Long- and short-term recreation use and tourism <br />goals. including use levels and growth, <br />accommodations, and infrastructure, are <br />coordinated between federal, state, and private <br />entities. <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />5) Effective communications have been established <br />with other entities, the public, and special <br />interests. <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />· ECO: WATER - The overall goal is to <br />manage and protect the regional water <br />resources and aquatic ecosystems to <br />maintain, rehabilitate, and perpetuate their <br />inherent natural integrity in western <br />Colorado in coordination with state and <br />other federal agencies. <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />Conditions to be attained: <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />1) The Gunnison River's flows and flow regime <br />have been protected, ensuring sufficient and <br />permanent water flows that mimic a natural <br />flow regime. <br /> <br />2) Water quality is maintained at the highest level <br />possible, consistent with the Clean Water Act <br />(33 use 1251 et seq.) and other applicable <br />federal, state, and local laws and regulations. <br /> <br />3) Water quality for the world-class trout fishery is <br />maintained. <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />4) Other water users and agencies assist in <br />achieving goals through recognition of common <br />benefits and support to reach mutually agreed- <br />upon goals. <br /> <br />5) Interpretive programming is in place that <br />addresses park and regional issues in the context <br />of the Gunnison River Basin ecosystem. <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />I <br /> <br />I <br />
