FieldOpValueNote
review_typerequireNPS_NEPA_consultation_for_federal_action_within_unitOzark National Scenic Riverways (~80,790 acres along the Current and Jacks Fork Rivers) is the first U.S. national area established to protect a wild river system (P.L. 88-492, 1964). Federal undertakings within the boundary or affecting the unit require NPS NEPA consultation; in-river or in-corridor development must comply with the General Management Plan (GMP) and the 2014 record of decision on river management.
base_districts[*].scenic_river_corridor_density_findingsimplement_through_local_plancounty_subdivision_review_per_chapter_64Counties adjacent to the riverways implement corridor protection through their Chapter 64 subdivision and zoning regimes; the corridor is not directly preempted by state statute but state RSMo §253.430–253.435 (Streamside Resource Conservation Act / similar) provide an advisory layer. Substantive land-use authority remains with the county outside the federal boundary.

Research notes

Geographic predicate keyed to NPS boundary polygons across Carter (29035), Crawford (29037), Dent (29067), Iron (29093), Oregon (29153), Phelps (29161), Reynolds (29179), Ripley (29181), Shannon (29203), and Texas (29215) counties. preemptions.md does not cover federal-park interfaces, so this overlay was authored from NPS source data and the establishing public law. The state's 'Missouri Scenic Rivers' label is colloquial; there is no consolidated RSMo scenic-rivers statute parallel to the federal Wild and Scenic Rivers Act — the operative federal anchor is the Ozark Riverways Act, and the Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC) administers a non-statutory 'Outstanding State Resource Waters' designation through 10 CSR 20-7.031 ORW listings rather than a chapter 253 program. Task brief's citation to '§253.350' as the scenic-rivers anchor was incorrect — §253.350 is the Babler Memorial State Park section.
