Multiple Use Policy

A Multiple Use Policy is a set of guidelines that allows a resource—like land, water, or equipment—to be used by different people or groups for various purposes, while ensuring it remains sustainable and accessible. It balances people’s diverse needs, such as recreation, conservation, or resource extraction, by establishing rules that prevent conflicts and overuse. The goal is to maximize benefits while protecting the resource's health and longevity, enabling multiple parties to enjoy or utilize it responsibly over time.
