You Have Until June 30 to Comment on Death Valley Stewardship Plan

Death Valley National Park is preparing a Wilderness Stewardship Plan to guide decisions for the future use and protection of its wilderness lands. And if you’d like to comment, there is still  time. The deadline for public input on the Death Valley Wilderness Stewardship Plan has been extended to June 30.

The park is enormous and about 93 percent - 3.1 million acres- is federally protected under the terms of the Wilderness Act of 1964. And the public's opinions on wilderness resource values and management alternatives is critical in the planning process.

Electronic comments are preferred via the  public comment form on the NPS Planning, Environment and Public Comment System or by email to devaplanning@nps.govey, CA 92328.
