Last week, the National Park Service acting Intermountain Regional Director signed the Finding of No Significant Impact for the environmental assessment clearing the way for park concessionaires, Xanterra and Delaware North, to develop seasonal housing for their employees in Yellowstone National Park.
Housing improvements, funded by concessionaires, could begin as early as this fall. The project will include the construction of up to 14 recreational vehicle (RV) sites and six modular homes, and rehabilitation of comfort stations to provide shower and laundry facilities at an abandoned camper loop in the Canyon Campground. Additionally, this project will include construction of up to 25 RV sites and a bath house adjacent to the Yellowstone General Stores warehouse near the West Entrance.
The plan selected for the project involves areas of the park that have pre-existing infrastructure and minimizes adverse impacts on park resources.
