Public review of the Draft Merced River Plan/EIS took place from January 14 to March 24, 2000. A series of informational meetings and public hearings were held throughout California in 12 locations. During that time, over 2,300 comments were received, representing a broad range of issues. The publics comments were used to help create the Merced River Plan/FEIS. Some comments addressed concerns regarding the proposed boundaries, classifications, Outstandingly Remarkable Values, and proposed River Protection Overlay. Other public comments included suggestions for changes to the management zoning to respond to camping, parking, and other river management-related issues. Respondents also requested that the National Park Service provide more specific research and monitoring guidelines in the Merced River Plan/FEIS.
