Subject: Fwd: lapse of appropriations
As Deputy Superintendent Steve Iobst just wrote, "The
specific details of what will happen to the national parks in the event
of a lapse of appropriations are still under development and review.”
That said, we have this general guidance about concession and commercial use authorization operations:
- Except for hotels, lodges, and campgrounds, all concession-operated visitor services and facilities would close
- Overnight accommodations and campgrounds would stay open until guests currently checked-in check-out.
- All guests would have to check-out and leave the park within 48 hours.
- No new guests could check-in.
- The Superintendent could permit
concessioners and their contractors to continue repair, maintenance, and construction projects.
- Employees could stay in the park but could not not bike, hike,or otherwise recreate outside assigned areas.
- Concessioner and CUA clients on overnight back county trips could finish their trips unless there were a practical and safe way to end them.
- Except for the overnight back country trip provision above, all CUA holders activities in park would stop. (INCLUDING FISHING)
We'll send out another email
as soon as we know more. That may not be until Monday.
Regards.
