Budget Challenges in Massachusetts, Prompt Search for New Ways to Manage State Parks.


Massachusetts, Governor, Deval Patrick has asked the Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs (EEA) to get public input on options for changes in administrative structures and programs to meet environmental goals in light of the State's budget challenges.

From a State Park standpoint, the Department of Conservation and Recreation (DCR) Commissioner Rick Sullivan is looking to see if there is potential for greater sharing of responsibility for the management and operation of DCR properties with other public and private entities.

The EEA has scheduled six “listening sessions” and is also looking for comments in writing. Details on the locations and times for the listening tour and ways to comment can be found on the EEA web site.
