over time as additional funding and
resources are secured.
Under Alternative D, Fort King would
highlight the site’s strong association
with nationally significant historical
events and interpretive themes.
Alternative D takes an aggressive
approach to site development. Its larger
initial investment in cultural landscape
rehabilitation and visitor service
infrastructure is intended to quickly
establish the name recognition and
credibility necessary to attract higher
profile partners and compete for private
and public financing.
It is the practice of the NPS to make
comments, including names and home
addresses of respondents, available for
public review during regular business
hours. Anonymous comments will not
be considered. We will make
submissions from organizations or
businesses, and from individuals
identifying themselves as
representatives or officials of
organizations or businesses, available
for public inspection in their entirety.
However, individual respondents may
request that we withhold their names
and addresses from the public record,
and we will honor such requests to the
extent allowed by law. If you wish to
withhold your name/address, you must
state that request prominently at the
beginning of your comment.

alternative, and public involvement in
the decision-making process. The ROD
was approved by the Southeast Regional
Director on August 30, 2005. The CMP/
EIS provides a framework for the
management, use, and development of
the National Historic Trail by the NPS
and its partners over the next 15 to 20
years. Beginning at Brown Chapel AME
Church in Selma, Alabama, the trail
follows the route of the March 1965
Selma to Montgomery voting rights
march, traveling through Lowndes
County along U.S. Highway 80, and
ending at the Alabama State Capitol in
Montgomery. The CMP/EIS describes
four management alternatives for
consideration and analyzes the
environmental impacts of those
alternatives. As soon as practicable, the
NPS will begin to implement the plan
and the preferred alternative, known as
Alternative C. Of the four alternatives
presented in the plan, Alternative C
stresses the broadest range of
interpretive themes relating to the
events of March 1965 and provides an
extensive plan for resource preservation,
protection, and commemoration. Among
its priorities is the coordinated
protection of historically intact
viewsheds along US Highway 80, the
most extensive certification of
commemorative sites and streetscapes,
design proposals for new park spaces,
and marked walking and biking rails.
Alternative C also outlines a strategy for
establishing interpretive centers and
development of corresponding
interpretive programs in Selma,
Montgomery, and Lowndes County.
The ROD was signed by the
Southeast Regional Director on August
30, 2005.
