Following from executive summary: "A new carriage road visitor use regression estimator was developed based on twelve censuses conducted in 2001-2002. The r^2 for this regression was 0.65, the slope 2.41, the intercept 592.88, and the F statistic 0.001511. The regression is highly significant and will be used to estimate carriage road visitor use for the next 5-10 years, or until there is a significant change in visitor use or access based on monitoring or management action.' /STUDY LOCATIONS:/ /MOUNT DESERT ISLAND/Carriage Roads/
