Lake Clarke National Park Case Study
For generations, Lake Clarke National Park has been providing outdoor opportunities for nearly 200,000 visitors each year. Recently, a September 20, 2006, email message sent to park supervisors was published on the internet. Local media outlets, including the New York Times, have made this memorandum the topic of much controversy. Due to the park’s financial situation, service level adjustments are necessary in order to maintain the standing of LCNPS. However, by no means was the park trying to intentionally mislead the public nor were we attempting to cover up the reality of this situation.

The above-stated controversy is a result of certain words and phrases mentioned in the email. The title of the memorandum refers to “operational cutbacks,”

    Summary Of William Ashworth's Late Great Lakes

    William Ashworth wrote the Late, Great Lakes – An Environmental history with the sole purpose of informing all and any who would read it. He wrote it with pure hope in changing how we might see or treat this world. Ashworth gives cold hard facts of the dwindling of the Great Lakes. He gives blame to where it deserved- to us. “Despite the fact they have long been called lakes, they have also long been treated as they were infinite.”…

    Stanley Park Project

    The City of Kelsey’s founder, M. Kelsey’s vision was to “preserve the natural resources of the land and maintain a close-knit community” (Apollo Group, 2011). The elected and appointed officials who have followed consistently meet the needs of the community by continuing to build upon foundation that the city was built – self-sufficiency and a strong sense of community (Apollo Group, 2011). The city has seen a significant increase in population over the past few years and expects this trend to continue into the foreseeable future. As the City of Kelsey grows, businesses and industries will also continue to progress and particular care must be taken to preserve the natural resources and the tradition of the city while balancing between the city’s overall growth and preservation needs (Apollo Group, 2011). The city government sees the immediate need in parks and recreation. Over the past two years, the city has invested millions of dollars in the Parks and Recreation Department in continuous improvements. The Stanley Park Project will offer state of the art park and recreation amenities that will meet the needs of all residents; from parents walking through the park with infants in strollers, teenagers skateboarding on the skate ramp, senior citizens learning computer skills in the computer learning center, to dogs using the enclosed dog park. This innovative state of the art multipurpose-multifunctional park with recreation facilities enforces what the City of Kelsey offers, “Amenities of the big city without sacrificing the small town charm” (Apollo Group Inc., 2011).…

    Jeromicide Park Research Paper

    I stopped by the city park in Jerome, Idaho on Saturday, April 2nd. The reason I picked this park was because it was a very popular place I took my kids growing up. Where I am the Children’s Ministry Director at our church, I thought this was the perfect point to find kids interacting and playing. This park has been popular over the years and I thought it would be a good place to start. When I arrived at the park, other than a family that was throwing a birthday party, adults and kids were scarce. The park had not been managed, granted, this was the first really nice warm Saturday we had had in awhile, but for it being so nice, there were very few people in the park. The reason I mentioned that the park had not been managed is because all winter…

    Lake Rudolph Research Paper

    Lake Rudolph gave me a lot of moments that I will never forget for the rest of my life. One incident that was memorable was an incident about me being stupid. For instance, at Lake Rudolph you could rent golf carts to around the premise. Most places at Lake Rudolph were accessible by driving the golf cart around. So it was logical for us to rent one. The third and final night we were there, my family was riding around in the golf cart, enjoying the cool summer night. While in the golf cart, I asked my mom if I could take the golf cart for a spin. She said yes and I took over the wheel. For the first few minutes, I was fine. But as I was driving down a little hill, a patrol cop came up the hill. As soon as I saw him I flopped out of the cart…

    I am writing you to bring up our community park littering issues. These littering issues are getting out of hand. I wish you would put more time and effort into checking the city parks. If this isn’t put to a stop soon our local parks will turn into a huge garbage can! Without community parks the children of our community won’t have anywhere to play! With nothing to do in their spare time they'll fall off into a negative path. We don’t want our future on an negative path, we need positive reinforcements for our community. I hope this letter will help you notice one of the problems in our community. I’m willing to do whatever it takes to fix this,and you should too.…

    Camping: State Parks

    To illustrate my point, I would like to paint a picture of the typical State Park camping experience. Pretend you are a vacationing middle class businessman from down state wanting to take his family on a camping excursion “up north” over his two week summer vacation. In order to spend a night in one of Michigan’s beautiful State Parks, there is a simple procedure that everyone must go through. First, you must dial a toll-free number, 1-800-44-PARKS, (or use the internet to make a reservation at http://www.midnrreservations.com ) up to 6 months in advance to your pre-planned date of arrival. Spontaneity is overrated anyway. After you dial the number you have to type in the first four letters of the park that you wish to visit. At this point you will be connected with an operator in Maryland who will help you pick out a site number that will suit your needs from a park she’s never seen before in a state she…

    Clean Lakes Case Study

    A main purpose of wastewater and sludge treatment is to remove phosphorus (P). It seems to be reasonable because excess phosphorus entering the aquatic systems can result in algal blooms. People have been taking much effort to explore simple, economic and high effective methods to remove phosphorus. Concentration of nitrogen (N) is another important element to assess the quality of freshwater. As the same with phosphorus, excess nitrogen also leads eutrophication. But it’s more difficult to prevent lakes from being nitrogen-rich, because managing nitrogen input isn’t as easy as phosphorus, especially with respect to the non-point nitrogen inputs, including nitrate…

    Lakes are relatively small to large water bodies surrounded by land on all sides sustaining an ecosystem in and around them. Lakes have been an integral part of the ecological system by providing natural abode for plants, animals and microorganisms. Increase in urbanization and industrialization has led to the destruction and in the reduction of lakes in the city of Bangalore, Surviving lakes in Bangalore are reduced to cesspools due to direct discharge of industrial effluents and unregulated dumping of solid wastes (Ramchandra 2007).

    In 1986 the Tankwa Karoo National Park (TKNP), situated within the Succulent Karoo, was acknowledged as a national park (Bester et al., 2012; Rubin, 1998; Van der Merwe et al., 2015). It is therefore seen as a youngster amongst South Africa’s other National Parks (Bester et al., 2012).
