Graham J. 2009. Geologic Resources Inventory Scoping Summary Fort Matanzas National Monument, Florida
The National Park Service held a GRI scoping meeting for the park units of the Southeast Coast Network (SECN) during the week of April 20–24, 2009 at Jacksonville, Florida. These units included Canaveral National Seashore (CANA), Castillo de San Marcos National Monument (CASA), Cumberland Island National Monument (CUIS), Fort Caroline National Memorial (FOCA), Fort Frederica National Monument (FOFR), Fort Matanzas National Monument (FOMA), Fort Pulaski National Monument (FOPU), and Timucuan Ecological and Historic Preserve (TIMU). Fort Matanzas National Monument was discussed on April 20. Bruce Heise (NPS GRD) facilitated the meeting, presented an overview of the GRI program, and led the discussion regarding geologic processes and features at each NPS unit. Stephanie O’Meara (Colorado State University) led the discussion of map coverage relevant to each unit. Randy Parkinson (RWParkinson Consulting) presented an overview of coastal regional geology and barrier island geomorphology. Participants at the meeting included NPS staff from the park, Geologic Resources Division (GRD), and Southeast Coast Network (SECN) and cooperators from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), Florida Geologic Survey (FGS), University of West Georgia (UWG), University of Georgia (UGA), Polk Community College (PCC), and Colorado State University (CSU) (see table 2).
