Alternative B emphasizes to a high degree the restoration, preservation, and interpretation of historic landscapes and viewsheds of the site (by selected removal of vegetation) for the purpose of providing visitors a greater understanding of the siege and reduction of Fort Pulaski in 1862. The visitor center parking lot will be removed and the site returned to the approximate landscape condition that existed during the principal period of significance (April 1862). The visitor center parking lot will be relocated to a site near the visitor center but outside the viewshed from the top of the fort. The relocated parking lot will be just as near to the visitor center and just as accessible as the current one. The national monument proposes to construct a visitor center annex designed for park visitors, school groups, and staff. This structure will be designed to be technologically current and environmentally friendly and sustainable. In addition to having telecommunications network capabilities, it will provide connections for computers, technical, and audio/ visual equipment. This, in addition to the space itself, will make the building ideal for both educational and interpretive programs, lectures, public presentations, staff meetings, staff training, and video conferencing. As part of the general management plan process, the National Park Service conducted a wilderness eligibility assessment to determine whether any lands at Fort Pulaski National Monument are eligible for inclusion in the national wilderness preservation system. This assessment identified approximately 4,500 acres of eligible land within the monument boundary. Under the preferred alternative, all lands identified as eligible in the wilderness eligibility assessment are proposed for designation as wilderness, except for those lands within 100 feet of the edge of the right-of-way of U.S. Highway 80. If finalized and approved by Congress, this proposal will result in approximately 4,500 acres of salt marsh receiving permanent protection as wilderness. The selected action will provide a comprehensive monument-wide approach to resource and visitor use management. Specific management zones detailing acceptable resource conditions, visitor experience, use levels, appropriate activities and development will be applied to monument lands consistent with this concept. The selected action will VerDate Mar<15>2010 16:41 Dec 18, 2013 Jkt 232001 continue most current cultural and natural resource management and preservation activities as well as visitor programs and opportunities.

is the alternative selected for implementation. Alternative B 
emphasizes to a high degree the restoration, preservation, and 
interpretation of historic landscapes and viewsheds of the site (by 
selected removal of vegetation) for the purpose of providing visitors a 
greater understanding of the siege and reduction of Fort Pulaski in 
1862. The visitor center parking lot will be removed and the site 
returned to the approximate landscape condition that existed during the 
principal period of significance (April 1862). The visitor center 
parking lot will be relocated to a site near the visitor center but

lot will be just as near to the visitor center and just as accessible 
as the current one. The national monument proposes to construct a 
visitor center annex designed for park visitors, school groups, and 
staff. This structure will be designed to be technologically current 
and environmentally friendly and sustainable. In addition to having 
telecommunications network capabilities, it will provide connections 
for computers, technical, and audio/visual equipment. This, in addition 
to the space itself, will make the building ideal for both educational 
and interpretive programs, lectures, public presentations, staff 
meetings, staff training, and video conferencing. As part of the 
general management plan process, the National Park Service conducted a 
wilderness eligibility assessment to determine whether any lands at 
Fort Pulaski National Monument are eligible for inclusion in the

the edge of the right-of-way of U.S. Highway 80. If finalized and 
approved by Congress, this proposal will result in approximately 4,500 
acres of salt marsh receiving permanent protection as wilderness.
    The selected action will provide a comprehensive monument-wide 
approach to resource and visitor use management. Specific management 
zones detailing acceptable resource conditions, visitor experience, use 
levels, appropriate activities and development will be applied to 
monument lands consistent with this concept. The selected action will 
continue most current cultural and natural resource management and 
preservation activities as well as visitor programs and opportunities.
