Spring 2025 Civic Engagement

The National Park Service is beginning a planning effort for the Orrs Ferry Unit in Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area. The result will be a site management plan for a section of the Orrs Ferry Unit that will include concepts for natural and cultural resource protection, facility development, visitor use, and other management needs. The National Park Service will work with its partners, stakeholders, and the public to develop the plan in compliance with legal and policy requirements. When the draft design concept plan is produced, you will be invited to review it and provide comments. Thank you for being involved in this process!

Topic Questions:

1. What do you think of the plan's purpose and need? Are there any other issues we should address in the plan? Are there any opportunities we should be sure to take advantage of?

2. What features of the Orrs Ferry unit do you value most? What activities or experiences are most important to you when visiting Orrs Ferry? How could these be enhanced? ​

3. What facilities do you feel are essential for a visit to Orrs Ferry? What improvements could make Orrs Ferry more accessible? ​

4. What are your thoughts on the proposed vision and strategies for Orrs Ferry? What other management practices or strategies should we consider?
