Headwaters Park Task Force

SALIDA -- The Arkansas Headwaters Recreation Area (AHRA) is accepting nominations for their Citizens Task Force (CTF). The nominations will be accepted through February 28, 2005.
The task force represented by 14 members has been functioning since 1990 as an advisory group to the Bureau of Land Management's River Manager and Colorado State Park's Park Manager. The task force gives recommendations to AHRA on management, growth and development issues throughout the recreation area.

One delegate is needed to represent each of seven interest areas:
1) Anglers, 2) Commercial Permittees, 3) Environmental Interests, 4) Private Boaters, 5) Local Governments, 6) River Front Property Owners, and 7) Water Users Interests. These are two-year terms from April 2005 until April 2007. Members are expected to attend five regular meetings each year, which are typically scheduled from 9 a.m. until 12 p.m.

To receive a nomination form or more information about the process concerning the AHRA's Citizens Task Force, call AHRA at 719-539-7289. Information can also be obtained by visiting the AHRA website at www.parks.state.co.us.
