archived

On March 30, 2009, President Obama approved H.R.146, the Omnibus Public Land Management Act of 2009 (as Public Law 111-11. Title VIII, Subtitle A, Section 8002 of the Act) establishes the Cache la Poudre River National Heritage Area (hereafter ⿿CALA⿝) as a successor to the Cache la Poudre River Corridor. CALA, as established by this legislation, has as its management entity the Poudre Heritage Alliance (hereafter ⿿PHA⿝), a Colorado non-profit corporation. The PHA has been in existence since 1999, and through the cooperation of local entities with assistance from the National Park Service (hereafter ⿿NPS⿝) the PHA recently had its Management Plan for the heritage area approved by the Department of Interior. Unless otherwise specified herein, the terms and conditions as stated in Cooperative Agreement P15AC00527 will apply to this Task Agreement. National Heritage Areas are places where natural, cultural, historic and scenic resources combine to form a cohesive, nationally important landscape arising from human activity shaped by geography. These patterns make National Heritage Areas representative of the national experience through the physical features that remain and the traditions that have evolved in them. These regions are acknowledged by Congress for their capacity to tell nationally important stories about our nation. This Task Agreement focuses on planning, administration, marketing, enhancement and demonstration projects that are identified in the management plan for the CALA and serve a public purpose under P.L. 111-11.
