Reflecting on the Past, Looking to the Future. Sustainability Study Report. Conservation and Stewardship Publication No. 7

摘要

In 2004, the John H. Chafee Blackstone River Valley National Heritage Corridor Commission (Commission) initiated the Blackstone Sustainability Study to evaluate the past 18 years of work in the National Heritage Corridor (Corridor) and use this as a foundation for a dialogue about future management of the Corridor. The Commission and its Futures Committee, desiring external review and a transparent evaluation process, asked the National Park Service Conservation Study Institute (Institute) to provide technical assistance by conducting the Sustainability Study and providing opportunities for input from partners and the general public.
