FEDERATION OF WESTERN OUTDOOR CLUBS







No. 19
FUNDS FOR NATIONAL AND LOCAL TRAILS BUILDING AND MAINTENANCE


               
A proposed provision in the new National Park Service budget will reduce the funds for the Natural Programs by 50 per cent.  There are indications that the Park Service officials believe there is little demand for new trails or river protection.  If this action is finalized, there would be a serious erosion of trail and river studies and of assistance to state and local agencies for development of new trails or maintenance of existing trails.
            
The Federation of Western Outdoor Clubs recommends that all of the funds allocated for the natural Programs be retained in the National Park Services budget so studies of trails and rivers can be continued.  Also sufficient funds should be provided to supply funds for assistance to state and local agencies for trail development and maintenance.
