Description
Working paper developed by the National Park Service as part of its multiyear planning process under the Maine Acadian Culture Preservation Act. The process began at least as early as 1992; the appendix features an "Interpretive Workshop Summary" dated December 15, 1992. An earlier draft of this paper appears to have been created in February 1995.
From the Introduction: "The National Park Service (NPS) is consulting with the Maine Acadian Culture Preservation Commission to prepare an interpretive plan, as proposed in the document Implementing the Maine Acadian Culture Preservation Act: Draft Conceptual Framework/Environmental Assessment. The interpretive plan will be an action plan that will contain specific strategies for carrying out the broad conceptual framework adopted by NPS in 1994."
The planning process was significantly modified due to the 1995 rescission bill that cut funding for the Maine Acadian Culture Preservation Act. The Commission had, prior to the bill, committed to a plan for multiple interpretive sites across the St. John Valley.
