Chapter 8: Consultation 

and Coordination

Public Involvement

In 2003, Congress directed the National Park 

Service (NPS) to complete a special resource study 

of the San Gabriel Watershed and Mountains, and 

to determine whether the area, or a portion of 

it, was eligible and suitable to be managed as a 

unit of the National Park System. The study team 

made extensive efforts to provide opportunities 

for the many elected offi cials, organizations, local 

governments, and residents of the greater Los 

Angeles metropolitan region to learn about, and 

contribute to, the study process. Throughout the 

special resource study process, the study team 

gathered input on issues, possible actions and 

alternatives, through workshops, public meetings, 

stakeholder meetings, fi eld trips, newsletters, and 

websites. 

Core Agency Partners

As directed in the study legislation, the NPS 

partnered with the Lower Los Angeles and San 

Gabriel Rivers and Mountains Conservancy (RMC) 

in conducting the study. The NPS also partnered 

with the Angeles National Forest and the Los 

Angeles County Department of Public Works. 

These core agency partners served as advisors in 

project planning, communications, involvement of 

interested parties, and community engagement. 

The partners also contributed resource data, 

expertise, and reviewed draft documents. 

Scoping

The NPS initiated the study public scoping in 

January 2005. The scoping process included 

meetings with agencies, elected offi cials and 

organizations, public meetings and workshops, 

three newsletters, a web page, and written 

public comments. These sources were used to 

identify the issues, signifi cant resources, ideas for 

alternatives, and impact topics to be considered for 

environmental analysis.

The NPS study team used a variety of methods to 

notify the public and stakeholders of the study 

initiation. On January 19, 2005, a Notice of Scoping 

was published in the Federal Register, formally 

initiating the comment period for public scoping. 

The comment period extended to May 20, 2005. 

The study team compiled a mailing list of 3,000 

from partner agencies and mailed Newsletter 1 to 

this list. Newsletter 1 described the study process 

and announced the dates and locations of public 

scoping meetings held throughout the study area. 

Public meetings were held in Rosemead, Claremont, 

Diamond Bar, Downey, and Acton.

During the public scoping period, the NPS received 

65 comment letters and e-mails from individuals, 

agencies, cities, organizations and elected offi cials. 

Input on the scope of the study was also provided 

by the approximately 175 people who attended 

public meetings hosted by the NPS. Additional 

input was gathered through meetings with various 

individuals, agencies, organizations, cities, and local 

elected offi cials. After scoping comments were 

received, the NPS published a second newsletter 

summarizing the comments. The majority of 

scoping comments were related to the study 

process and scope, opportunities, potential impacts, 

and important resources to consider.

Following the scoping period, the NPS conducted 

additional outreach by holding numerous meetings 

with cities, communities, government councils, and 

elected offi cials to refi ne the study boundary based 

on both public comments and legislative intent. A 

third newsletter was published describing changes 

to the study scope (scope revision).

The following is a list of the agencies, communities, 

organizations, and elected offi cials that the study 

team met with during the public scoping. Formal 

consultation letters were also sent to agencies and 

tribal groups.

Resource Analysis

Following the scoping phase of the study process, 

the NPS began analyzing study area resources 

to determine if there were resources of national 

signifi cance and if so, whether those resources 

would be suitable for inclusion in the national park 

system. The NPS worked with representatives from 

various agencies and organizations to determine 

resource signifi cance. A number of methods were 

employed, including phone interviews, meetings, 

and fi eld trips. NPS cultural and natural resource 

professionals were also consulted during this 

process.

Alternatives Development

The study team released draft alternative concepts 

in a newsletter for public review in the summer 

of 2009. The public comment period was open 

from August to November 2009. The study team 

distributed over 3,000 newsletters to organizations 

and individuals on its mailing list, partner agencies, 

and at public and stakeholder meetings. A limited 

number of newsletters translated into Spanish 

were also distributed. The newsletter was also 

available for comment on the National Park Service’s 

Planning, Environment and Public Comment (PEPC) 

website. 

News releases announcing the availability of the 

alternatives newsletter and the public meetings 

schedule were distributed to local media, and 

several newspaper stories were published. 

The purposes of the newsletter were to: 1) 

present preliminary study fi ndings; 2) present 

preliminary alternatives; and 3) solicit comments 

on the preliminary fi ndings and alternatives. The 

newsletter also contained information on the 

date, time, and locations of public meetings that 

were held to solicit comments on the preliminary 

fi ndings. Between August and October 2009, the 

study team held six public meetings at locations 

throughout the study area including Diamond Bar, 

El Monte, Santa Clarita, Glendora, Palmdale, and 

Tujunga. At each meeting, the study team gave a 

presentation describing the preliminary fi ndings and 

alternatives and answered questions. Participants 

shared comments and suggestions in small groups 

facilitated by the study team, and Rivers and 

Mountains Conservancy (RMC) staff, and other 

volunteers. The facilitators recorded comments on 

fl ipcharts during the discussion. All of the meetings 

were well attended by diverse groups of community 

members (approximately 450 total) despite the fact 

that the Station Fire, which signifi cantly affected 

the Angeles National Forest, was burning during 

this time. In addition to the public meetings, the 

NPS study team held meetings with local, state 

and federal government agencies, organizations, 

communities, and Congressional offi ces.

The NPS received approximately 4,800 comments. 

Most of these comments were submitted via written 

letters and through e-mail. There were 205 unique 

letters and 4,600 form letters of 5 different types. 

The NPS received comments from 36 different 

agencies and organizations. The remainders were 

from individuals. The public meeting transcripts are 

also part of the public comments. A variety of views 

were expressed, but the majority of comments 

support combining different aspects of the

258 Draft San Gabriel Watershed and Mountains Special Resource Study & Environmental Assessment 

and leadership. Some communities and agencies 

expressed concerns about loss of local control, or 

restrictions on their ability to carry out necessary 

functions. Other commenters expressed concerns 

about restrictions on recreational activities or 

impacts on their communities from increased 

recreational use. Better access to recreation and 

providing close to home opportunities was an 

important goal for some commenters. Others 

expressed interest in furthering opportunities 

for connecting wildlife habitats and protecting 

watershed values. Following the comment period, 

the study team continued to meet with stakeholder 

groups and agencies to refi ne the alternatives.
