Excerpt from Record of Decision, Final Environmental Impact Statement for Tusayan Growth: Kaibab National Forest
For some time now, the Forest Service, National Park Service, and in fact, virtually all federal land management agencies in the southwest have been trying to better meet the challenges of the changing southwestern landscape. We know that it is the fastest growing region of the country, and that the folks who are coming here in record numbers are settling next to federally managed lands. We know that water and riparian habitat are ever scarce, and that people and wildlife like to live and play in and near it. Tourism is fast becoming a major segment of the region's economy. Indeed, the Forest Service Natural Resource Agenda includes recreation as a major tenet as does the Forest Service Southwestern Region's customer-driven work emphasis strategy, Company's Coming, as does the Grand Canyon National Park's 1995 General Management Plan. Consequently, I see this collaboratively derived Environmental Impact Statement (eis) for Tusayan Growth as one in a long line of efforts to balance people's wants and needs with the environment.
