Protecting endangered and threatened species- Performing prescribed burns every 15 years

Blue Spring State Park might further promote sustainability by:
- Increasing funding to hire more employees who can enforce that visitors do not harm the habitat
Educating the public to increase awareness of the consequences of damaging habitat- Following through with acquiring land north of Blue Spring to create a wilderness corridor to Ocala National Forest
