Public meetings will be held this week in Forks, Neah Bay, Clallam Bay and Seattle to get input on the future of Olympic National Park.
Park service officials are working on a general management plan that will guide the park for the next 15 to 20 years.
They are also working on an environmental impact statement analyzing the effects of that plan.
“It is vitally important that this vision be developed together by the public and park staff, and we encourage people to share their thoughts about the park’s future,” park Superintendent David Morris said.
A newsletter with information on the planning process and a comment form is available from the park.
