Citation Excerpt: Language regarding partnership projects at Moccasin Bend NAD ... was included in the House and Senate committee reports, and is reinforced by the managers. (House Report 108-542: The $400,000 provided for Moccasin Bend at Chickamauga and Chattanooga National Military Park is for a development concept plan for this newly authorized area. The Committee understands there is considerable local support for a significant visitor facility. The Service must first complete the appropriate management planning and scoping to determine site requirements and facility needs. The park must also work with the Service's visitor facility-planning model in order to determine an appropriately sized facility that can be operated and maintained given foreseeable budget constraints. The local friends group is encouraged to participate actively in the planning process, and to consider feasible partnership components that could be value-added to what the Service might otherwise construct, such as, undertaking a fundraising campaign for exhibits or a visitor center film.)
