Although the program provides parkwide visitor-use monitoring, much of its recent effort relates to the Merced and Tuolumne Wild and Scenic River
planning efforts. Upon release of final environmental impact statements for both river plans, updated visitor-use reports and monitoring protocols will
be made available. Note that program documents do not represent the final suite of indicators selected for inclusion in the draft river plans.
The abbreviated documents below demonstrate the processes for selecting and implementing indicators and standards. These documents introduce
guiding legislation, management systems that have been in place for decades, and the latest park initiatives to establish standards, indicators, and
monitoring programs for visitor experience and resource protection. View annual reports and field monitoring guides from past years and other
visitor-use references (http://www.nps.gov/yose/naturescience/visitor-use-archive.htm) online. For any questions on the monitoring
program, contact the coordinator by email (http://www.nps.gov/common/utilities/sendmail/sendemail.cfm?
