The essential staff providing assistance for the development of the RMP included Rodger Cunningham, the manager of Lake Wister State Park who also has responsibility for Talimena State Park. In addition, Mandee Hafer provided assistance for numerous details related to Talimena State Park. Assistance was also provided by Hardy Watkins, Kris Marek, and Doug Hawthorne – all from the Oklahoma City office of the Oklahoma Tourism and Recreation Department.

It is the purpose of the Resource Management Plan to be a living document to assist with decisions related to the resources within the park and the management of those resources. The authors’ desire is to assist decision-makers in providing high quality outdoor recreation experiences and resources for current visitors, while protecting the experiences and the resources for future generations.
