Title 50 - Wildlife and Fisheries
The Comprehensive National Assessment is a national report integrating the results of State boat access needs and facility surveys. The Comprehensive National Assessment determines nationwide the adequacy, number, location, and quality of public tie-up facilities and boat access sites for all sizes of recreational boats. The Service completes the Assessment. We will develop standards in consultation with the States. Using the results from the State surveys, the Service will compile the results and produce the Comprehensive National Assessment by September 30, 2003. The Comprehensive National Assessment products are: (a) A single report, including the following information: (1) A national summary of all the information gathered in the State surveys. (2) A table of States showing the results of the information gathered. (3) One-page individual State summaries of the information.

(6) Information on the following: (i) Boater trends, such as what types of boats they own, where they boat, and how often they boat. (ii) Boater needs, such as where facilities and sites are now found, where boaters need new facilities and boat access sites, and what changes of features boaters need at these facilities and sites. And (iii) Condition of facilities. (b) Summary report abstracting important information from the final national report. And (c) A key findings fact sheet suitable for widespread distribution.
