It is the intention of the Rhode Island Department of Environmental Management ("DEM") to obtain 170 acres of federal surplus land on the Beavertail area of Jamestown, Rhode Island. The Department has worked with the Town of Jamestown ("Town") toward creation of a Beavertail State Park which would be made up of the surplus land and 26 additional acres now owned or controlled by the Town. In moving toward creation of the park the Department and the Town have analyzed the characteristics of the land in question and have drawn plans for a park which will meet the needs of users while preserving the fragile ecological, scenic and historical characteristics of Beavertail. This plan is explained and described in the attached documents, known as the Beavertail Descriptive Plan, which is attached hereto in § 4.4 of this Part. The Beavertail Descriptive Plan portrays the size of the Park, and describes the manner in which it is to be developed. In addition, please see the associated guidance document entitled, "Parks and Recreation Guidance Document for the Development and Operation of Beavertail State Park, Jamestown, Rhode Island," which includes an analysis of the physical and biological characteristics of the Beavertail Peninsula.
