Commercial filming always requires a permit. Commercial filming activities may be charged a location fee and a fee to cover costs incurred by the park while monitoring filming.

Commercial photography does not usually require a permit. However, if any of the conditions in the following list are true, a permit is required.

• the photography will take place at a location or locations where members of the public are not generally allowed.
• the photography will take place at a time or times when members of the public do not generally have access.
• the photography will use model(s), set(s), or prop(s) that are not part of the location's natural or cultural resources or administrative facilities.
• the park will incur costs to monitor the photography.
