ORV and Plover MTG Scheduled
Vehicle/plover update scheduled in seashore
PROVINCETOWN - Here's your chance to pipe up on nesting plovers, road closures and the whole summery snafu in the Cape Cod National Seashore.
The National Seashore has scheduled an "Off-Road Vehicle Plover Update" public meeting from 10 a.m. to noon on Dec. 9 at the Province Lands Visitor Center in Provincetown.
The goals: discussing how management of the Off Road Vehicle (ORV) corridor may be improved in the future when closures are necessitated by piping plover activity, and seeking possible solutions from the public. Earlier this year, all vehicle access to the Cape Cod National Seashore's eight-mile off-road vehicle corridor from Race Point Light in Provincetown to Longnook Beach in Truro was temporarily closed to protect the plovers, listed as threatened under the federal Endangered Species Act.
