DEPARTMENT OF CONSERVATION AND NATURAL RESOURCES Revisions to Schedule of Prices for State Parks [46 Pa.B. 1559]
[Saturday, March 26, 2016]A. Summary and Background
Under section 314 of the Conservation and Natural Resources Act (71 P.S. § 1340.314) and 17 Pa. Code § 11.224 (relating to prices), the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources (Department), Bureau of State Parks, is revising its price schedule for State Park activities, uses and privileges. The new schedule in section D, as follows, includes revisions to the schedule to add a 30-consecutive-day shooting range permit fee range for shooting range operation.
The revision includes adding a 30-consecutive-day shooting range permit fee for shooting ranges operating on Department lands. The Department has recently renovated its shooting ranges, investing in forms of lead remediation, safety barrier construction, shooting range redesign and other related projects. This fee structure will also be utilized at any future Department ranges. Individuals, families and groups interested in utilizing the shooting range facilities must purchase range permits. Permits can be purchased by individuals 16 years of age or older. A family is defined as up to five people living in one family unit (person living under one household). Additional family members in excess of five will need to either purchase additional individual permits or an additional family permit.
The current price schedule can be found at the State Parks web site at http://www.dcnr.state.pa.us/stateparks/prices/index.htm or at any State Park office. When the new price schedule becomes effective it will be posted on the State Park web site.
