The National Park Service is seeking public feedback about the Hawaii Volcanoes National Park’s draft Accessibility Self-Evaluation and Transition Plan.
The draft plan documents existing barriers to accessibility, provides recommendations for improving in-park access, and proposes time frames to implement changes. Suggested improvements include upgrades to park structures, programs and services.
The document is available for public review and comment until Jan. 11 on the NPS Planning, Environment and Public Comment website at https://parkplanning.nps.gov/HAVO-SETP.
Comments may be submitted online at the project website by clicking on “Open for Comment.”
“It is important that visitors of all abilities are able to enjoy the incredible experience that Hawaii Volcanoes National Park offers,” said HVNP Superintendent Rhonda Loh. “This plan describes our proposed strategy to provide a welcoming and inclusive environment in popular locations throughout the park. We look forward to hearing from you.”
All comments, including personal identifying information, may be made publicly available at any time. Although respondents may request that their comments and personal information are withheld from public review, the park cannot guarantee that.
