Sawtooth National Park Essay

Improved Essays
(Introduction) January 27, 2010, Congress confirmed the Sawtooth National Recreation Area and Jerry Peak Wilderness Additions Act H.R.1138 that allows for maintenance and management of Sawtooth National Park to ensure that the park is well taken care of. This also helps the park rangers to properly manage the livestock, insects, fires and the overall care of the park. The bill allows for the USDA to properly manage the interior of the park, and keep it from wasting away, which also requires donations and funds for the park to keep its ongoing appearance.

Relying largely on the 2005 Rangeland Health Standards Assessment (RHS), it recognized significant ecological issues on the rangeland.

    It has been El Paso’s goal to make Castner Range a national park for decades. The park has been an important part of El Paso’s history since 1926, and still continues to impact the city today as we fight for national recognition. Many El Pasoans have expressed and harbored their own opinions on what should become of Castner Range, and their opinions have continued to affect what becomes of it.

    The Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, TPWD, has been around since 1895, just not in the form that we recognize today. The department got its roots when Texas legislature created what was known as the Fish and Oyster Commission to better regulate fishing within in the state. It was later on, in 1907 that the next phase of the department was added on as the Game Department. It was added to give the original department more reach to protect not only the fishing in Texas, but also other forms of hunting.
