Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the aspects of a case involving the alledged violation of the Land and Water Conservation Act of 1964, (Public law 88-578), a federal statute. In the case of Friends of the Shawangunks, Inc. vs. Clark, a group of private citizens dedicated to the preservation of a particular natural resource, the Minnewaska State Park of New York, brought suit against the Secretary of the Interior for the alledged failure of the National Park Service to comply with requirements for the Land and Water Conservation Fund Act. Explains that the case's landmark decision underscored the significance of the thrust of the statute, which is to prevent the diversion of public recreation resources to other uses. |
