    Information Sheet R Cullimore family. 1090 Collection, 1973-1992. Four folders. This collection is available at The State Historical Society of Missouri. If you would like more information, please contact us at [email protected]. These are papers of the Cullimore family of journalists and outdoor writers. The collection consists of correspondence between Donald B. “Rocky” Cullimore and Dan Saults, and a compi- lation of Saults’s articles in Branson and Springfield, Missouri, newspapers. This collection represents the first installment of what will be a much larger assemblage of Cullimore family papers. It centers on conservationist and author Dan Saults, a close friend of the Cullimore family, and supplements materials in the Saults collection (WHMC-Rolla R403). Saults was a leader in promoting conservation efforts in Missouri. A native of Knob Noster, Mis- souri, he bought the Knob Noster Weekly Gem after graduating from the University of Missouri School of Journalism. He operated the paper until World War Two. Saults served as an officer in the 339th Infantry Regiment in North Africa and Italy during the war, after which he spent a year in Texas. In 1947, Saults joined the Missouri Department of Conservation, heading the depart- ment’s information service and editing the Missouri Conservationist. Later he became the deputy director of the department. In 1964, Saults joined the U. S. Department of the Interior and moved to Washington, D.C., where he worked with the Bureau of Land Management and the Fish and Wildlife Service. He retired in 1973. Saults and his wife, Helen, a former National Park Service employee, moved to a home near Branson, Missouri.

  • MTNF Forest Plan
    Chapter 3 Management Prescriptions Mark Twain Forest Plan National Forest Cover photo: One of many springs on the Mark Twain National Forest, USDA Forest Service Photographer: Lori Wilson Chapter 3—Management Prescriptions Chapter 3 Management Prescriptions Introduction Management prescriptions provide direction to help achieve goals and objectives expressed at the forestwide level. Management prescriptions define where differing types of opportunities and experiences are available to the public, and where differing management practices may be carried out. They identify proposed and probable practices and actions appropriate to achieve the desired conditions. All management prescriptions provide multiple uses, even though their titles may imply a single use. This chapter presents each management prescription separately. A specific resource not addressed in a management prescription indicates that the Forestwide Standards and Guidelines provide adequate direction. In addition, Federal and State laws, regulations, and the Forest Service Directives System always apply, although they are not specifically identified in management prescription direction. Each management prescription includes the following elements: Theme – a short summary of management emphasis. Goals – concise statements that describe the primary purpose or aim for the management prescription. Goals are broad and general in scope with no specific timeframe. Desired Condition – a narrative description of the desired characteristics and conditions expected because of the prescribed management. They provide a snapshot of what the forest or management area will look like when goals, objectives, standards, and guidelines are met. Desired conditions can apply to the present or the future and do not consider costs. Standards and Guidelines – direction that applies to a particular management prescription, in addition to the Forestwide Standards and Guidelines.

  • Management Prescription 8.1 Designated “Special Areas”
    Chapter 3—Management Prescriptions The following information from the 2005 Forest Plan for the Mark Twain National Forest superseded the 1986 Forest Plan, which stated that it superseded the CRMP for the Eleven Point River. This information is a portion of that from Management Prescription 8.1 – those sections that pertain to all 8.1 areas, and those that pertain directly to the Scenic River, the National Recreation Trail that is within the River corridor (designated after the Forest Plan was signed), and to the Greer Spring Special Management Area. Other management guidelines that govern this area, (in place of a CRMP), can be found in Chapter 2 of the Plan, (Forestwide Standards and Guidelines), and Chapter 4, (Monitoring and Evaluation). Management Prescription 8.1 Designated “Special Areas” Other Than Wilderness Theme This prescription describes a variety of designated “special areas” other than Wilderness. They exist for the protection of unusual environmental, recreational, cultural, or historical resources, and for scientific or educational studies. New areas may be added to this prescription as they are evaluated. Goals Protect and appropriately manage areas of special scientific, biological, historical, ecological, geological, scenic, recreational, and educational significance. Provide low to moderate production of other resources such as timber products, fish and wildlife, recreation, and forage where they are compatible with “special area” objective. Maintain or enhance the outstandingly remarkable values within the Eleven Point National Scenic River. The outstandingly remarkable values include scenic (water features, landforms, and vegetation), recreation (national attraction, water sports), fishing, wildlife, prehistoric and historic resources, and geology. Provide a variety of recreational opportunities with interactions between users ranging from low to high depending on the specific locations and ROS objectives.
