- W2471705190 abstract "A merica’s first national seashore was Cape Hatteras, stretching roughly 80 miles along North Carolina’s Outer Banks. When the new park was dedicated in 1958, federal officials and local dignitaries spilled water from Yellowstone’s Old Faithful geyser onto the sand of Coquina Beach, where it mingled with water from the Atlantic. National Park Service Director Conrad Wirth told onlookers that the mixing of water signified the “linkage between Yellowstone, our first national park, and Cape Hatteras, our first national seashore.” The comparison to Yellowstone was apt, but not for reasons that would have been appreciated at the time. After being established by Congress, both parks languished for nearly two decades before materializing in workable form. Yellowstone was virtually ignored by the federal government for six years after its creation in 1872, and the first park managers field tested the concept of a national park by trial and error for eighteen years. Similarly, Park Service planners envisioning Cape Hatteras did not have a clear vision of what a national seashore was to be—and over the course of two decades its purpose evolved. Much like the original national park idea in early Yellowstone, the concept of a national seashore park took some time to solidify, and could have taken several different paths other than the one it eventually followed. Authorized by Congress in 1937 when the Park Service was flush with New Deal funding and was using the young men of the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) to develop hundreds of recreation parks across the country, Cape Hatteras should have been on the fast track for this new type of federal-park development. Yet the project stumbled for several years and was generally considered dead until resurrected at the last minute by sizable donations from two charitable foundations. From its approval in Congress to the official establishment in 1953, sixteen years passed. Reasons for this initial failure included a lack of state government support, the disruption caused by World War II, the possibility of rich oil reserves along the continental shelf, and finally, the changing and sometimes contradictory visions of the seashore park communicated by Park Service planners. Without a clear understanding of what Cape Hatteras was to become, it was difficult for Outer Banks residents to support its creation." @default.
