The CSP provides facilities and services to the public to enjoy NPS areas. This is done through concession contracts and commercial use authorizations (CUAs) issued under the authorities cited in the 1965 Concession Policy Act (P.L. 89-249) and the 1998 National Park Concessions Management Improvement Act (P.L. 105-391, Title IV).
As private companies, concessioners help the NPS by offering services to park visitors that parks do not provide directly. By welcoming the private sector as a partner in park operations, the NPS broadens the economic base of the region and its surrounding park communities. The CSP and other NPS divisions administer nearly 500 concession contracts that gross over $1.5 billion in total annual revenues.
NPS concessioners employ more than 25,000 people for various jobs during peak seasons. Such jobs range from food and lodging to whitewater rafting adventures and motorcoach tours.
