No Commercial Fee Increases for 2007-08 at NPS Sites
May 23, 2007 –Due to the widespread confusion surrounding recently announced National Park Service entrance fee increases, NTA met via conference call with NPS officials to determine what, if any, entrance fees would be increasing for tour operators in 2007-08.

NTA was assured that announced increases pertained to individual visitor fees and not the flat commercial fees tour operators pay. NPS also held fast to its commitment to give NTA at least 12 months notice of any increase in commercial fees and to continue communicating with association members in the future.
