Fascinating tours include Montgomery, the first capitol of the Confederacy. It was during the Battle of Mobile Bay that Admiral Farragut exclaimed “Damn the torpedoes! Full speed ahead!” At the USS Alabama Battleships Memorial Park in Mobile, visitors can explore the park’s namesake as well as over 20 other World War II–ships, aircraft, and weapons. The Civil Rights movement thrust Alabama into the national media spotlight in the 1950s and 1960s. Defining events included the 1955 Montgomery Bus Boycott and the historic Selma to Montgomery March. Gain a deeper understanding of the movement at the Birmingham Civil Rights Institute. Across the street is the Sixteenth St. Baptist Church, site of the 1963 bombing that killed four little girls. Natives call Alabama “The Beautiful,” and we agree. Its northeast corner lies at the southernmost terminus of the Appalachian Mountain range. Quaint mountain towns such as Mentone offer rich fall foliage and excellent craft and antique shopping. Little River Canyon in Fort Payne is one of the deepest gorges east of the Mississippi. Four national forests and numerous lakes through- out the state provide enthusiasts with plenty of hunting and fishing. Alabama’s Gulf Coast region is home to moss-covered oak trees and white sand beaches. Orange Beach is known for top-notch saltwater fishing. The Alabama Coastal Birding Trail dots Mobile Bay with spots for viewing both wading and shore birds. Golf is the feather in Alabama’s outdoor cap. Anchoring Alabama’s golf offerings are the eight facilities of the Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail. The trail lures golfers from all over the world with its championship courses and country club amenities. Other public, state park, and resort courses are open to visitors. NASCAR racing fans are familiar with the Talladega Superspeedway, home of the Diehard 500 in April and the Winston 500 in October. Combination tickets for year-round track tours and admission to the International Motorsports Hall of Fame are available. Other Alabama destinations include: The U.S. Space and Rocket Center, VisionLand theme park, Mother Angelica’s Eternal Word Television Network, the Alabama Jazz Hall of Fame, Birmingham Museum of Art, Sloss Furnaces National Historic Landmark, De Soto Caverns, Heart of Dixie Railroad Museum, Alabama Shakespeare Festival, Mercedes-Benz Visitor’s Center, Hank Williams Sr. Boyhood Home and Museum, The Dauphin Island Sea Lab, and numerous historic homes and plantations.

  • 2016-2017 Annual Report
    2016-2017 ANNUAL REPORT 1 Honorable Kay Ivey Governor of Alabama State Capitol Montgomery, AL 36130 Dear Governor Ivey: I am pleased to submit the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources’ Annual Report for Fiscal Year 2016-17. The Department continues to find more efficient ways to communicate and con- duct business with our constituents. License purchases, special hunt registrations and park lodge and camping reservations are available through our websites, www.outdooralabama.com and www.alapark.com. In addition, we are communi- cating to more than half a million people through email newsletters and notices. Funds derived from the cap on sales tax discounts were restored to State Parks in FY 2017. These funds have provided much-needed relief in addressing the back- log of park maintenance projects. Park guests totaled just under 5 million this fiscal year. The federal management of red snapper and other reef fish continues to be a highly volatile issue within the fishing community. Our Marine Resources Division is working with federal agencies and Congress to provide more state oversight of this fishery and a longer season for anglers. Snapper Check, which continued for the fourth year, is an important part of this effort. The State Lands Division has administered the Coastal Impact Assistance Program (CIAP) on behalf of the State of Alabama since its beginning in 2005. During the life of this program, which closed this year, State Lands administered 49 grants for over $58 million funding various coastal project activities supporting Mobile and Baldwin counties. Participation in the state’s Game Check system for the recording and reporting of both deer and turkey harvests became mandatory during the 2016/2017 hunting seasons.

Strengthen the capacity of the people of Appalachia to compete in the global economy. 3. Develop and improve Appalachia's infrastructure to make the Region economically competitive. 4.

  • 2017-2018 Annual Report
    2017-2018 ANNUAL REPORT 1 Little River Falls DeKalb County 2 BILLY POPE BILLY The Honorable Kay Ivey Governor of Alabama State Capitol Montgomery, AL 36130 Dear Governor Ivey: I am pleased to submit the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources’ Annual Report for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2018. The Department continues to find new ways to serve the public while making sure we are adhering to our mission of promoting the wise stewardship and enjoyment of Alabama’s natural resources for current and future generations. Twelve Alabama State Parks were awarded Trip Advisor’s Award of Excellence certificates in Fiscal Year 2018. Seven parks were inducted into the Hall of Fame for five consecutive years of winning Awards of Excellence. These designations are based on unsolicited visitor reviews and show how much the public enjoys what our parks have to offer. In 2018, the Snapper Check Program was certified by NOAA Fisheries as a statis- tically valid method to estimate Alabama red snapper landings. Alabama is using Snapper Check to monitor red snapper landings in near real-time to stay within a state quota issued through a NOAA Fisheries’ Exempted Fishing Permit (EFP). The EFP will continue through 2019. The State Lands Division continued to coordinate administrative and technical aspects of the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill Natural Resource Damage Assessment (NRDA) pursuant to the Oil Pollution Act. This included participating in NRDA Trustee Council meetings, conducting public meetings, soliciting public input regarding potential restoration ideas, assisting with development of draft resto- ration plans and implementing early restoration projects.
