Book excerpt: Excerpt from Survey of Backcountry Water Quality in Great Smoky Mountains National Park Aside from removing stock from the vicinity of Abram's Creek, there is probably very little that can be done through maintenance that would clean up backcountry water in the park. The condition of the seepage springs could be improved by cutting back around the spring into the slope and adding a wall. However, this would appear as a safe, maintained source to the visitors and, therefore, must be avoided. Leaving springs and streams in as natural a state as possible is the most desirable management, from an aesthetic point of view. Park staff should not add wall or pipes without consulting the sanitarian. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
