SUMMARY:Free Entrance Day in National Parks
DESCRIPTION:Get into the National Parks for free today in celebration of the Great American Outdoors Act Anniversary. \nThe Great American Outdoors Act (GAOA)\, passed in 2020\, improving infrastructure and expanding recreation opportunities in national parks and other public lands. The legislation established the National Parks and Public Lands Legacy Restoration Fund and guaranteed permanent funding for the existing Land and Water Conservation Fund. \nThe National Parks and Public Lands Legacy Restoration Fund\, supported by revenue from energy development\, provides up to $1.9 billion per year for five years to make significant enhancements in national parks and other public lands ensuring their preservation and providing opportunities for recreation\, education and enjoyment for current and future visitors. GAOA\, the recently passed Bipartisan Infrastructure Law and other construction funding sources are part of a concerted effort to address the extensive maintenance backlog in national parks. \nThe Land and Water Conservation Fund receives up to $900 million a year from offshore oil and natural gas royalties. This funding assists national parks in the acquisition of essential lands and provides states with money to invest in local conservation and recreation opportunities.
