Earthworks Landscape Management Manual, 1989

摘要

Today, the National Park Service is faced with increased usage of the parks, which is leading to increased deterioration of the parks' cultural and natural resources, including those associated with earthworks. The Earthworks Landscape Management Manual's primary focus is to develop management strategies and interpretive guidelines which resolve current conflicts between the requirements for preservation and the impacts of interpretation and visitor use at the earthwork sites. The basic approach is intended to be adaptable for use at other earthwork sites under somewhat different environmental and cultural conditions, and with further limited study. Many of the recommendations will also be applicable to a variety of natural and cultural landscapes.
