The NPS&#8217; plan for the parks themselves makes a distinction between those with accessible areas that collect fees under a law known as the Federal Lands Recreation Enhancement Act and those that don&#8217;t. The agency, which is part of the Department of Interior, has a list of parks that do and don&#8217;t charge fees on its <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nps.gov\/aboutus\/entrance-fee-prices.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">website<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Park roads, lookouts, trails, and open-air memorials will generally remain accessible to visitors,&#8221; the plan says.<\/p>\n<p>About 100 of the 400 parks in the National Parks system collect fees. Those parks that have accessible areas will use available fees to provide &#8220;basic visitor services&#8221; to maintain &#8220;restrooms and sanitation, trash collection, road maintenance, campground operations, law enforcement and emergency operations, and staffing entrance gates as necessary to provide critical safety information.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Parks with accessible areas that don&#8217;t collect fees may be able to use &#8220;regional or national&#8221; fees with the approval of the service&#8217;s director.<\/p>\n<p>Parks without accessible areas will not operate during the shutdown, the NPS plan says. Staffing will be at a minimum and &#8220;[n]o visitor services will be provided.&#8221; The service &#8220;will not issue permits, conduct interpretive or educational programs, collect trash, operate or provide restrooms, maintain roads and walkways (including plowing and ice melting) or provide visitor information.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;As a general rule, if a facility or area is locked or secured during non-business hours (buildings, gated parking lots, etc.) it should be locked or secured for the duration of the shutdown,&#8221; the plan says.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The service says parks can enter into agreements with state and local governments and third parties &#8220;for donations to fund the full operation of an individual park unit or for specified services.&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/live-updates\/government-shutdown-latest-shutdown-begins-trump\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">government shut down<\/a><\/span> overnight after <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/government-shutdown-2025-funding-congress\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">Republicans and Democrats remained at an impasse<\/a><\/span> over a deal to extend federal funding before an Oct. 1 deadline.
