Wild and Scenic River. The Wild and Scenic Rivers Act (Public Law 90-542) seeks to protect the natural character of rivers and adjacent lands. Each river within the National Wild and Scenic River System is managed by one of four federal agencies (U.S. Forest Service, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Bureau of Land Management, or National Park Service) in a manner that protects its significant natural values without substantially interfering with public use and enjoyment of these values. Designation as a Wild and Scenic River neither gives nor implies government control of private lands within the river corridor, and management restrictions apply only to public lands. Congress authorized 191 miles of the Rio Grande River between river miles 842 (Xxxxxxxx Canyon in BBNP) and 651 (boundary of Xxxxxxx County and Val Verde County, Texas) as Wild and Scenic in 1978 to preserve the free-flowing character and natural and scenic conditions of this river segment. BBNP is responsible for administration of the entire Rio Grande Wild and Scenic River, including 69 miles that are within the boundaries of BBNP. NPS management objectives for the Rio Grande Wild and Scenic River include: ➢ preserving the free-flowing condition within restrictions of international treaties; ➢ protecting the scenic, geologic, fish and wildlife, recreational, scientific, and other similar values along the river; and ➢ providing opportunities for recreation consistent with the river's primitive character. BBNP’s jurisdiction includes only that portion of the river within the United States. While the Wild and Scenic Rivers Act and Big Bend National Park enabling legislation do not contain explicit language regarding binational cooperation, the fact that the Rio Grande represents the international boundary has significant implications for cooperative management. In order to meet the intent of the Act and successfully manage the river as a whole, it is necessary to protect both sides along the entire 191-mile segment. Management of the Rio Grande Wild and Scenic River thereby creates an opportunity for binational cooperation between Mexico and the United States.
