Caring For Our Coast: A Plan for community Management of the St. Croix estuary Area. Croix Estuary Project. March, 1997.

This document is a companion volume to The St. Croix Estuary Area: A Profile. It presents the management plan that followed the St. Croix Estuary Program’s initial work in 1993-94 to determine the values of local residents with regard to the St.Croix Estuary Area, and their vision for these coastal lands and waters. This resource also follows considerable research to identify and define key issues of interest to local people and others. Altogether, the plan addressed some 30 issues and recommends 50 actions. This document chronicles this comprehensive environmental community management plan through its creation, sustainability, and implementation and evaluation. Initiated by an overwhelming community vision, this plan aims to manage and protect the beautiful resources in and around the St. Croix Estuary Area.
