Every Congress, laws are passed that impact the way in which the National Park Service is managed. These laws govern everything from the size of a park, to how fees are collected and spent, to the intent behind the creation of a new unit.
Below you will find the laws that were passed that related to the National Park Service back to the 103rd Congress. Since laws change, it is important to look at the current state of a law. For this, please refer to the U.S. Code. For information on what a law does, refer to the “Summary of National Park Service Law” linked below.
