�PQS�(�NT OF ry United States Department of the Interior <br /> NATIONAL PARK SERVICE <br /> URVICE <br /> o INTERMOUNTAIN REGION <br /> 12795 West Alameda Parkway <br /> Post Office Box 25287 <br /> Denver, Colorado 80225-0287 <br /> February 22, 2012 <br /> Mr. Rod Tarullo <br /> Director <br /> City of Golden Parks and Recreation <br /> 1470 101h Street <br /> Golden, CO 80401 <br /> Dear Rod: <br /> As a landowner associated with the Golden fossil areas that were designated as additions to the <br /> Morrison-Golden Fossil Areas National Natural Landmark (NNL) in June 2011, I want to <br /> cordially welcome you to the NNL Program. Also I want to provide you with a welcome packet <br /> to ensure you have a copy of the pertinent information regarding the NNL Program and your <br /> NNL site. <br /> Please find enclosed a folder containing the following items: <br /> • The Final Evaluation Report for the Golden Fossil Areas(March 2011), including an August <br /> 2011 Amendment finalizing the boundaries for the newly designated areas. <br /> • The Landmark Brief for the full Morrison-Golden Fossil Areas NNL. This one-page <br /> document is a standard product produced by the NNL Program that summarizes the site's <br /> resources and provides a consolidated significance statement. <br /> • The official Boundary Maps for the NNL. Given the non-contiguous nature of this site, the <br /> NNL is represented by an overall map and three accompanying maps that provide a more <br /> detailed look at the different tracts comprising the NNL. <br /> • The Department of Interior Press Release announcing six new NNL designations(including <br /> the Morrison-Golden Fossil Areas). <br /> • A color NNL Program Brochure. <br /> • A CD containing an electronic version of the above documents and including the GIS data <br /> for the NNL boundaries. <br /> As a regional coordinator for the NNL program, my roles are to provide service to landmark <br /> owners in support of conservation goals (which may include technical assistance, participation in <br /> work groups, reviewing and commenting on management plans, cooperatively seeking funding <br /> for projects,providing information) and to report on the condition of sites over time. Thus, I <br /> hope to maintain contact with NNL landowners/managers roughly every two or three years, or <br /> more frequently as needs arise. Regular contact allows me to stay apprised of the condition of <br /> the significant resources and to help identify if there are ways the NPS can support landowner's <br /> conservation efforts. <br /> TAKE PRIDE'3' 1 <br /> INAM ERICA��.,� <br />
