Key Parties Agree on Framework for SLMP Update

An agreement has been reached among the Governor's Office, the Environmental NGOs, DEC and APA and others on the process and scope of an update to the SLMP (State Land Master Plan). There is a clear statement of what is open to change and what isn’t as well as how the process will proceed and the new version eventually approved. With decades of experience with the old SLMP, it has been possible to propose a set of changes that make everyone happy with the result going forward. The updates include the results of DEC's new approach to land planning that looks at the Park in five large complexes.
