Submission

The recommendations of the Draft Site Plan and proposed plans for new camping and other visitor-related sites are supported but we note that the current proposals represent the limit of what can be achieved by making better use of currently disturbed areas. The TNPA would be unlikely to support further expansion of visitor facilities into currently undisturbed areas; i.e. if visitor numbers continue to increase, an alternative approach is likely to be needed.
