Ed asks: What are the guidelines, publication or regulations that the National Parks Service uses to oversee the W&S designation?

The National Park Service works with an interagency group known as the Interagency Wild & Scenic Rivers Council to ensure consistency in administering the Act. The Council has a number of publications on its website including a comprehensive list of Questions and Answers that can be found at:  http://www.rivers.gov/publications/q-a.pdf

Some additional resources may be found on our website: http://www.vtwsr.org/
