As you know, I've been trying to reduce the impact of off leash dogs pooping in the hang glider set up area, and an additional drinking fountain/dog water station could draw some of the doggy traffic to the less populated NE corner of the Fort, not to mention being very convenient for those who walk trails north of the parking lot.
I just attended the GGNRA open house and learned that there are no plans to install a drinking fountain or dog water bowl at the new restrooms. This seems like an easy thing to do since they will be bringing in water for the restrooms anyway.
We can have an influence on the GGNRA by posting public comments before January 18, 2009.
Please go to; http://parkplanning.nps.gov/commentForm ... ntId=25138
and request they install a drinking fountain and dog water faucet at the new restrooms.
The plan overview is at; http://parkplanning.nps.gov/document.cf ... ntId=25138 click on "scoping flyer" for details.
It would be great if you could pass this on to your friends, Thanks!
