National Park Service Fees: Value For The Money Or A Barrier To Visitation?
Document Type: Project Report Client: National Park Service
Date: 6/15/2004 Category: Environmental Projects
Abstract: The National Park System (NPS) employs several fee strategies to regulate access and generate operating funds. However, a national debate surrounds many fee issues the acceptability of the Recreation Fee Demonstration Program (RFDP), whether the value of the benefits matches the fees, the preferred structure for applying fees, and whether fees constitute a barrier to some portion of the American public. This investigation sheds additional light on the fees debate and contributes to the decisions NPS managers must make about fees and fee strategies.
