This Museum Management Plan describes an approach for implementing improvements for the museum program over a five-year period, building upon past achievements and anticipating future challenges, with an emphasis on the efficiencies and savings associated with a multi-park approach. This plan identifies the museum management challenges and opportunities facing these three parks, and presents recommendations to advance the program. A survey of the park staff was conducted to determine current informational and program support needs (see Appendix A). A team of museum management professionals developed this plan in cooperation with the staff responsible for managing park archives, museum collections, and library resources. The archival and museum collections reflect the age and maturity of the different parks and are stored at the Redwood National and State Parks South Operations Center facility in Orick, California and other park locations. Providing controlled access to these important park-specific resources contributes to the efficiency of managing park operations. The recent initiation of a regional and national strategy for museum facilities supports the multi-park approach and helps justify the museum program’s emphasis on Redwood as a three-park repository.

  • Fifteenmile Subbasin Plan
    Fifteenmile Subbasin Plan DRAFT May 25, 2004 Prepared by Wasco County Soil and Water Conservation District and Fifteenmile Coordinating Group for The Northwest Power and Conservation Council Fifteenmile Subbasin Plan Table of Contents Section 1: Executive Summary Section 2: Introduction Section 3: Assessment Section 4: Inventory of Existing Activities Section 5: Management Plan Section 6: Appendices A through J Fifteenmile Subbasin Plan DRAFT May 25 2004 Wasco County Soil and Water Conservation District, in cooperation with Fifteenmile Coordinating Group 1. Executive Summary The Fifteenmile Subbasin Plan has been developed as part of the Northwest Power and Conservation Council’s Columbia River Basin Fish and Wildlife Program. Subbasin plans will be reviewed and eventually adopted into the Council’s Fish and Wildlife Program to help direct Bonneville Power Administration (Bonneville) funding of projects that protect, mitigate and enhance fish and wildlife habitats adversely impacted by the development and operation of the Columbia River hydropower system. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Fisheries, and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) intend to use subbasin plans as building blocks in recovery planning to meet the some of their requirements of the 2000 Federal Columbia River Power System Biological Opinion (BiOp). Subbasin planning through the Council’s program will also assist Bonneville with some of the requirements they have under the 2000 BiOp. The Fifteenmile Coordinating Group intends the Fifteenmile Subbasin Plan to serve multiple purposes. The Group intends the plan to meet the Council’s call for subbasin plans as part of its Columbia Basin wide program and to provide a resource for all entities involved with natural resource planning efforts.

Of the four hikes that are recorded Mount Saint Helens was the first climb undertaken by the Club. On the Beacon Rock hike Lower Hardy Falls on the nearby Hamilton Mountain trail were rechristened Rodney Falls in honor of the "mountaineer" Rodney Glisan.
