SPRINGDALE, UT - The National Park Service (NPS) is pleased to engage the public with an opportunity to comment on proposed changes to the Superintendent's Compendium for Zion National Park (ZION).
The Superintendent's Compendium is the summary of park specific rules implemented under Title 36 Code of Federal Regulations (36 CFR). The regulations contained in 36 CFR are the basic mechanism used by the NPS to preserve and protect the natural and cultural resources of the park as well as to protect visitors and property within the park. The Compendium is updated at least annually and serves as public notice related to designations, closures, permit requirements and other conditions adopted in response to changes in laws, agency policies or otherwise specific to a park under the Superintendent’s discretionary authority.The Superintendent's Compendium does not repeat regulations found in 36 CFR and other United States Code and CFR Titles, which are enforced without further elaboration at the park level. The current ZION Superintendent’s compendium is available at: https://www.nps.gov/zion/learn/management/lawsandpolicies.htm.
From Aug. 30, 2021 to Sept. 10, 2021, the NPS invites you to provide input on the proposed 2021 changes to the Superintendent’s Compendium. Please visit Parkplanning - 2021 ZION Proposed Changes to the Superintendent's Compendium (nps.gov). Primary topics for change and proposed revision from 2019 - 2021 include: 1) Bicycles, Pedestrians, & Vehicles, 2) Domestic Animals, 3) Face Masks, 4) Filming, and 5) Wilderness.
