National Park Service FY 2013 Budget Justifications Appropriation: National Recreation and Preservation Mission Overview The National Recreation and Preservation (NR&P) program contributes significantly to the goals of the NPS. By partnering with entities outside of the National Park System, natural and cultural resources are conserved and recreation opportunities are enhanced throughout this country and the world. Appropriation Overview The NR&P appropriation covers a broad range of activities relating to outdoor recreation planning, preservation of natural, cultural and historic resources, and environmental compliance. These programs provide a central point at the Federal level for recreation and preservation planning; the coordination of Federal and State policies, procedures and guidelines; and the administration of technical and financial assistance to Federal, State, and local governments and private organizations. Support is provided to the National Historic Preservation Program to develop a national inventory of historic properties, set standards for historic preservation, and provide technical and financial preservation assistance. Staff resources are also provided to coordinate a number of international assistance programs. This appropriation is comprised of the following eight budget activities: Recreation Programs Under this activity, the NPS provides technical assistance to State and local governments and transfers surplus Federal real property to local governments for recreation uses. Natural Programs Natural Programs activities include: the increase of river and trail opportunities through State and local technical assistance and Chesapeake Bay Gateway and Water Trails grants; the creation of river conservation and recreational opportunities that are compatible with continuing and future operations of hydropower facilities, the fulfillment of NPS responsibilities under the Federal Power Act, and the protection of park resources through the Hydropower Recreation Assistance Program; and the management of the National Natural Landmark programs. Cultural Programs Within the Cultural Programs activity, the NPS: manages the National Register of Historic Places; reviews applications and certifies applications for Federal Tax Credits for Historic Preservation; conducts cultural resources management planning through the National Historic Landmarks program, the Historic American Buildings Survey, the Historic American Engineering Record and the Historic American Landscapes Survey programs; advances the application of science and technology in historic preservation and provides information distribution and skills training in the preservation and conservation of the Nation’s significant historic and cultural resources through the National Center for Preservation Technology and Training; and coordinates the Federal archeology programs, the American Battlefield Protection program, the Japanese American Confinement Site Grants program, and the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Grants program. Environmental Compliance and Review This activity includes the staff resources to review and comment on environmental impact statements, Federal licensing, permit applications and other actions that may impact areas of NPS jurisdiction. Grants Administration This activity covers administrative expenses associated with the Historic Preservation Fund grant programs and the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Grants program.
