This Master Plan aims to manage and protect the historic Bus Burning Site, which holds significant importance in the Civil Rights Movement. The Environmental Assessment, on the other hand, evaluates the potential effects of the proposed plan on the environment and local community. Both documents are crucial for the preservation and management of the site.

Public participation is encouraged in this process, as the National Park Service values the insights and perspectives of the community. The public’s views and comments will play an essential role in shaping the final Master Plan and Environmental Assessment. The National Park Service is committed to maintaining transparency and fostering community involvement in its decision-making process.
