In 2016, the HRCA Board of Directors and District Delegates adopted the 7th amendment of the HRCA Bylaws which included the Community Involvement Process for Backcountry Development Proposals (CIP). The CIP is a multi-step, multi-month process that ensures any development in the Backcountry gains approval from the community and provides the community a chance to give feedback and ensure their voice is heard. A flow chart and more information on the CIP can be found here: https://www.hrcaonline.org/about-us/recreation-centers-backcountry/backcountry-wilderness-area/about-us-backcountry/backcountry-wilderness-area-management
