Notice of Availability of Director's Orders 53, the Revised
Guidance for All Special Park Uses in Units of the National Park
Service
AGENCY: National Park Service, Interior.
ACTION: Public notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The National Park Service (NPS) has available for public
review, the proposed revised guidance document for all special park
uses in units of the NPS. This information was developed to provide
guidance to managers in all units of the National Park System who deal
with requests for special park uses including but not limited to
special events, utility rights-of-way including those for
telecommunication antenna sites, commercial filming and photography,
and other uses. At the end of the review period, this material will
appear as a Director's Order for Special Park Uses distributed to all
NPS units. This document will provide guidance to park managers
concerning all aspects of requests for special park uses in the
National Park System, from the initial contact, through on-scene
protection of resources, and ending with complete recovery and
restoration of the site. This document will supersede and replace the
existing Director's Order 53A dealing only with telecommunications, and
consist of a concise treatment of the entire subject of special park
uses.
Copies of the proposed guidance document will be made available
upon request by writing: Chip Davis, National Park Service, Ranger
Activity Division, 1849 C St. NW, Suite 7408, Washington, DC 20240, or
