	TPWD: May 31, 2000 Commission Meeting Agenda – Conservation Committee
		The strategy would be to create a State scientific area used to promote low-impact use during low tides, creating a mandatory no-run zone in the State water section of Nine Mile Hole and a voluntary no-run zone in the national seashore (the national seashore has agreed to partner with us in that effort).
		Harvey stated that due to phone calls and letters received after the meeting, the Task Force would like to consider the no-run zone for Nine Mile Hole during the period of May 1 through September 30th, when tide is at its lowest.
		The goals and objectives of this feasibility study were to assess the environmental impact on State lands caused by development and increased visitation and to assess the economic impact of lodge development and maintenance on individual state parks.
