All respondents are recipients of funds for renovation and rehabilitation projects. They are obligated by the terms of the grant agreement to continually maintain the site or facility for public recreation use regardless of the percent of UPARR funds expended relative to the project and the facility as a whole. Grant recipients (urban cities and counties) submit a Conversion of Use Provisions request to the appropriate NPS Regional Office to request approval to convert UPARR-assisted properties to other than public recreation uses.
