| 英文摘要 | This five-year Strategic Plan has been written for one or more units of the greater National Park System administered by the National Park Service, U.S. Department of the Interior. The National Park System preserves outstanding representations of America’s natural, cultural, and recreational resources of national significance. These resources constitute a significant part of America’s heritage, character, and future. The National Park Service not only directly and indirectly preserves these national treasures; it also makes them available to millions of visitors from throughout the country and the world every year. This Strategic Plan was written to fulfill the requirements of Section 104 of the National Parks Omnibus Management Act of 1998. This legislation requires all field units of the National Park System prepare Strategic Plans and Annual Performance Plans consistent with the Government Performance and Results Act of 1993 and make these documents available to the public. This four-year Strategic Plan has been written for Petrified Forest National Park, one of over 380 units of the greater National Park System administered by the National Park Service, U.S. Department of the Interior. Petrified Forest National Park was established as a National Monument in 1906 and achieved National Park status in 1962. It is located in northeastern Arizona, and contains 93,533 acres (147 square miles), including two Wilderness Areas. The park is most famous for its colorful petrified wood and Painted Desert vistas, but has many other notable resources as well. The fossils it contains make it a site unique in the world for studying the Triassic period ecosystem. Archeological sites are numerous, and the Petrified Forest area is now known to have been a transition area between a number of ancient cultures. The park contains one of the few examples of shortgrass prairie in northeastern Arizona, as well as a number of historic structures, including the Painted Desert Inn, which has been designated a National Landmark. The park preserves these resources in perpetuity and makes this valuable part of America’s heritage available to approximately 682,000 visitors each year for their experience, enjoyment, understanding, and appreciation. Petrified Forest National Park preserves, protects and interprets a globally significant example of a Triassic ecosystem, and a continuum of human use in a high desert/short grass prairie. It preserves wilderness values for recreation, solitude, vistas, natural quiet, and night skies. It provides outstanding opportunities for scientific research and education. |
