Show 155 of the Great Salt Lake State Park on Antelope Island in accordance with the findings of the 1959 National Park Service Survey. PLAN FOR RECREATIONAL DEVELOPMENT OF THE GREAT SALT LAKE As the need for developing the recreational potential of the Great Salt Lake has become obvious, it has been acknowledged that it would be more beneficial to create a system of recreation uses rather than individual projects. It is suggested that, within this set of systems, the recreational components should be organized so that phasing of development is easily accomplished. In such a situation, complications arising at any time precluding further development of one system will have no detrimental effects on the other recreational systems. Three groups of potential uses have been established with increasing levels of developmental intensity. To accomplish the development in each level, three phases of activity have been identified to help reveal the point at which further development becomes impractical due to social, economical, and environmental constraints. Developmental Levels Level One - Low Intensity Use Group Low intensity use implies no appreciable modification to the landscape. This level primarily facilitates conservation and preservation areas such as wildlife preserves, conservation zones, primative hiking and camping areas. Public access would be seasonal and restricted and no special public services would be offered. |
