Applying for a Commercial Use Authorization
  1. For all “Authorized Activities,” download the application and complete following the instructions given. If you have questions regarding an activity that is not currently listed under “Authorized Activities,” please contact CUA Coordinators Jennette Jurado at 432-477-1109 or Claudia Arnberger at 432-477-1108.
  2. Review the insurance requirements for Automobile and General Liability Insurance and mail a copy of proof of insurance along with the completed application. Make sure the U.S. Government is listed as an “additional insured” on each certificate. A permit will not be issued unless insurance requirements are met.
  3. Review and understand the conditions of the permit. By issuing a permit, the National Park Service in no way guarantees campground availability, river levels, etc.
