62. Recreation Decision Tree YES NO YES NO Is an applicable regional model available? Use regional model (TCM or CVM) Do uses affected involve specialized recreation activities? Develop a regional model or conduct a site-specific study (TCM or CVM) Do estimated annual visits affected exceed 750,000? Do expected costs exceed 25 percent of expected total project costs? Do specific annual Federal recreation costs exceed $1,000,000 (FY 1982) Use unit day values

63. Use Unit Day Value if… The Annual Visitation < 750,000 and Opportunities Created Tend to Be Generalized and You Can Justify Not Using the CVM or the TCM The Annual Visitation < 750,000 and Opportunities Created Tend to Be Generalized and You Can Justify Not Using the CVM or the TCM
