Conclusion
This chapter showed the diversity of Nebraska's outdoor recreation
resources and the providers that help manage and supply those
recreational opportunities. Nebraska has a variety of options when it
comes to outdoor recreation, and the providers help ensure a sufficient
supply of those resources meet the needs of the users through public
input when planning for outdoor recreation. The next chapter will
discuss the demand for outdoor recreation in Nebraska and why it's
vital for providers of recreation to meet the users' preferences.

Integrate wetland conservation in your recreation plan
There are tremendous opportunities available for the conservation and outdoor
recreation available with Nebraska's wetlands. In 2019, NGPC partnered with
the University of Nebraska-Lincoln on a guidebook, "Integrating Wetland
Conservation into Local Planning," which provides information for recreation
managers and providers of outdoor recreation to consider when planning
for integrating and conserving wetlands. The guidebook includes toolkits for
wetland conservation planning that can help walk through the process of
planning for conservation of these valuable natural resources. Find it online
