Merced River Plans

There are two Merced River Plans.  In general, Wild And Scenic River legislation requires a river to have a management agency.  In the case part of the Merced is in Yosemite National Park and part is outside the park.  There are separate plans and concerns for these two units.

For more on the Merced River Plan inside the park see:

For more on the proposed change in the designation of the Merced River to non-Wild and Scenic, see:
