According to the acting superintendent at the park, UNESCO asked them to address several issues that were outside of the purview of the park, like sustainable development and "buffer zones" outside the boundaries of the park. Also this doesn't change the federal protection of the park. There is an article in the Daily News 6/21, if anyone has an on-line subscription.
