Platte could qualify for scenic river status says Audubon official
National Audubon Society official Charles H Callison told Nebraska Audubon members the Platte River likely meets the Scenic River Act of 1968 criteria. He urged cooperation with federal agencies to develop a plan for designation while preserving migratory bird habitats and natural shorelines. The plan would limit development, allow limited easements, and keep recreational facilities minimal to protect the river’s ecology.
