General Management Plan Amendment Development Concept Plan Environmental Assessment PDF Download

Excerpt from General Management Plan Amendment, Development Concept Plan, Environmental Assessment: Seminole Rest, Canaveral National Seashore, Florida Public Law 100 - 564 (october 31, 1988) authorized the secretary of the interior to acquire two tracts of land, Seminole Rest and Stuckey's, and add them to Canaveral National Seashore. The act directed the secretary to protect and interpret Seminole Rest's archeological and historic resources and to establish a visitor center and administrative headquarters for the national seashore at Stuckey's. This General Management Plan Amendment Development Concept Plan Environmental Assessment focuses on Seminole Rest. The National Park Service will address Stuckey's, which is a separate site approximately 5 miles south of Seminole Rest, at another time. This document presents four alternatives for development, visitor use, interpretation, and resource management at Seminole Rest, which is a 21-acre, detached unit of Canaveral National Seashore in the city of Oak Hill, Volusia County, Florida. The environmental impacts of the alternatives are also assessed. The site contains two houses that are more than 100 years old and a large shell mound, which is one of the last relatively intact St. John's I period shell mounds along the Atlantic coast. It dates to an occupation over years ago. The site has been placed on the National Register of Historic Places. Seminole Rest is currently closed to visitors. The two historic buildings the Instone house and the smaller caretaker's house are deteriorating. All four alternatives propose to preserve the houses, protect the archeological resources, and provide for public use to varying degrees. Under all alternatives the crest of the shell mound would be protected to honor the wishes of Native American groups. Alternatives 3 and 4 propose adaptive use of the houses.
