Landmark Design served as a member of two multi-disciplinary teams preparing scenic resource analysis, recreation experience analysis, and carrying capacity analysis for Lost Creek, Deer Creek, Scofield, Starvation, Rockport and Willard Bay Reservoirs in Utah, and Heron, Elephant Butte and Caballo, and Brantley and Avalon Reservoirs in New Mexico. These Resource Management Plans are part of a larger contract to prepare Resource Management Plans for seventeen reservoirs in Utah and Wyoming, and several more in New Mexico.

The purpose of the Resource Management Plans is to guide future use and management of the reservoirs and project areas. The plans identify land and water uses, recommend changes in existing management, develop implementation strategies and potential partnerships, identify goals and objectives for the project areas, establish future management requirements, and determine the areas to be developed/protected and managed for various uses. Information is gathered through public meetings and involves representatives of interested agencies, neighboring jurisdictions, adjacent private landowners and public interest groups.

As a final product, Landmark Design was responsible for scenic resource management, recreation experience and carrying capacity recommendations and guidelines for management.
