It is with great pleasure that the National Park Service (NPS) offers the Rim of the Valley Draft Special Resource Study and Environmental Assessment to you for review and comment. The NPS initiated this special resource study in 2010 and published preliminary management alternatives in late 2012. This study report reflects your initial involvement and input into the planning process. The study alternatives and their concepts reflect your concerns and ideas.

The executive summary newsletter, full draft report, and link to the NPS online public comment system are available on the study website: http://www.nps.gov/pwro/rimofthevalley. If you requested a hard copy of the full study report, it will be mailed to you in the next week. Copies of the executive summary newsletter are also being mailed to those of you on our mailing list who have not requested online only materials.  A Spanish language version of the executive summary will soon be available on the website as well.
