National Wildlife Refuge Special Use Permit Applications and Reports, 50 CFR 25, 26, 27, 29, 30, 31, 32, & 36

OMB 1018-0102

The National Wildlife Refuge System Administration Act of 1966 (16 U.S.C. 668dd-668ee), as amended by the National Wildlife Refuge System Improvement Act of 1997, authorizes us to permit public accommodations, including commercial visitor services, on lands of the National Wildlife Refuge System when we find that the activity is compatible and appropriate with the purpose for which the refuge was established. We use the information that we collect on FWS Forms 3-1383-G, 3-1383-C, and 3-1393-R to ensure that: (1) the requested activities are compatible and appropriate with the purpose for which the refuge was established, and (2) the applicant is eligible or is the most qualified applicant to receive the refuge special use permit.

The latest form for National Wildlife Refuge Special Use Permit Applications and Reports, 50 CFR 25, 26, 27, 29, 30, 31, 32, & 36 expires 2024-01-31 and can be found here.
