| Abstract: | The Recreation Carrying Capacity Study will evaluate the ability of the Project to accommodate existing and future recreation uses, and assess whether these uses are suitable given the potential effects on recreational, environmental, and social resources. Carrying capacity can be defined as the amount and type of use that an area can sustain over a given period of time. Carrying capacity can protect users’ experiences by preventing overcrowding, which causes deterioration of natural attribute and impedes each user’s ability to move freely and to fully enjoy the natural setting without undue stress and distraction. |
