The Rhode Island Department of Environmental Management (RIDEM) is a Rhode Island state government agency charged with supervising and controlling the protection, development, planning, and utilization of the natural resources of the state, including, but not limited to: water, plants, trees, soil, clay, sand, gravel, rocks and other minerals, air, mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish, shellfish, and other forms of aquatic, insect, and animal life.[3]
It includes the Division of Parks and Recreation which is responsible for management of Rhode Island's fifteen State Parks, seven state beaches, and five public use lands .
Predecessor agencies include:[4]
RI Metropolitan Park Commission (1904-1934)
RI Division of Forests, Parks and Parkways (1935-1952)
RI Department of Public Works (Parks and Recreation Division, 1952-1965)
RI Department of Natural Resources (1965-1975)
The lobbying of the Public Parks Association (1883-1903) was a significant factor in the creation of state parks in Rhode Island.[4]
