Commercial Use Authorizations


Learn about CUAs and how to apply for a permit.

A commercial use authorization (CUA) is a permit that authorizes suitable commercial services to park area visitors in limited circumstances as stated in Public Law 105-391, Section 418 (54 USC 101925) and 36 CFR 5 Commercial Operations.

Commercial operations are allowed within Katahdin Woods and Waters National Monument (KAWW) so long as they provide an appropriate visitor service and are authorized by the park through a CUA.
