A few facts about Nature Preserves and Current Reforestation

• The purpose of a Nature Preserve is to protect significant features of the natural heritage of Delaware and guarantee their existence for future generations.

• The articles of dedication for these Nature Preserves generally prohibit: buildings, facilities, billboards/advertising, roads/parking/trails (except in approved trail plan), utilities/public works (except in existing right of ways), regrading/excavation, removal or destruction of plants or animals (except for managing natural communities), or other uses that adversely affect plants/animals/habitat.

• 764 acres in Nature Preserves, about 22% of the Park

• Over 20 acres reforested

• The White Clay Creek is the only designated Wild and Scenic River in Delaware
