Maramures Mountains Management Plan (MP) is the official paper which sets up the legal framework of developing parks actions for reaching its objectives. This document is the legal base for parks activities, after its approval by governmental decision.
According to national law, the MP has been approved by the Scientific Council of MMNP. After it has been made the first version of MP it has been sent for recommendations to the Mr. Mike Appleton, the international expert who set up also the manual for elaborating protected areas management plans.
In 7-11 April 2008, at MMNP house, international consultants Mike Appleton and Philip Desmet had analyzed the first draft of MP, and as a result they have elaborated a set of recommendations for its review.
