The body for driving decision-making

The majority of the National Park's Management Board is made up of local stakeholders (60%).

These local stakeholders include elected representatives of the local authorities concerned and persons with local expertise appointed by the Minister for Ecology on the proposal of the departmental prefect.

This decision-making body is vested with the decisive power to enforce the principles laid down in the decree that created the National Park. It must determine the choices that the director must implement (notably the development of certain regulations), and must be able to control its management.

The directors' term of office is six years.
