Coal River Park Plan Scrubbed
The Interior Department rejected a bill to establish a 2,500 acre Coal River national park in West Virginia. A substitute bill proposed to create the Coal River National Recreation Demonstration Area and, while not recommending the park, urged careful planning to convert the area into year round outdoor recreation with facilities for skiing to fishing and boating, plus possible small dams for summer use. The department argued the area lacks extraordinary features for a national park but could serve public recreation needs with development.
