Plan Process

The last long-range interpretive plan (LRIP) for Sitka was completed in September 2000. This plan was tied directly to the general management plan (GMP) and a gateway community plan. Since these plans were completed, many changes have occurred within the community and in visitation use patterns and levels, and some earlier issues were never resolved. In addition, new partnerships with Russia have opened doors to knowledge and resources previously unavailable.
