AMOY buffers and Highway 12-Topic for conference call
04/22/2010 04:41 PM
Buffers for AMOY closures.pdf
Following is a topic I would like to discuss briefly after the conference call tomorrow
morning. I'm trying to apply buffers consistently in all areas of the Park as well as
comply with the consent decree. If we were to apply the consent decree literally,
the buffer is a 150 meter buffer around a point, not just the area perpendicular to
the shoreline.
Since the buffers usually do not appear on the closure request maps, I'm not sure
how aware you all are as to how close the buffers actually come to Highway 12 in
the different areas of the Park. Are we OK with buffers north of Buxton running
along the highway while buffers between Ramps 27-30 being posted on the top of
the dune so that people can see the closure from the highway. Any suggestions or
concerns about consistency? Britta Muiznieks

Buffers for AMOY closures N of Buxton actually cross Hwy 12. Should the closure signs be run along Hwy 12 or be placed closer to the interior of the dune? Buffers for AMOY closures between Ramp 27‐30 do not go all the way out to Hwy 12. Should they? We have not done so in the past.
