General Management Plan: Effigy Mounds National Monument, Iowa
Effigy Mounds National Monument, in northeastern Iowa, was established by presidential proclamation in 1949 to preserve a representative and outstanding example of a significant phase of the prehistoric American Indian mound building culture and to protect wildlife, scenic, and other natural values of the area. The General Management Plan (hereafter referred to as GMP) identifies problems and issues for Effigy Mounds, and presents a series of actions for solving identified problems. The plan also summarizes environmental compliance procedures completed for the plan, including documentation for endangered species, floodplains, and wetlands protection. The plan has been prepared in consultation with the state historic preservation officer and the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation. The draft General Management Plan/Environmental Assessment, which analyzed the proposal and three alternatives, went out for public review in June 1990. Based on the environmental analysis in that draft plan and public and agency comment, it has been determined that the plan will not significantly affect the quality of the human environment, and an approved finding of no significant impact is appended to the plan along with a summary of comments. An environmental impact statement will not be prepared.
