Abstract: The NPS Leasing Program 

allows any person or government entity 

to lease buildings and associated 

property administered by the Secretary 

of the Interior as part of the National 

Park System, under the authority of the 

Director of the NPS. A lease may not 

authorize an activity that could be 

authorized by a concessions contract or 

commercial use authorization. All leases 

must provide for the payment of fair 

market value rent. The Director may 

retain rental payments for park 

infrastructure needs and, in some cases, 

to provide administrative support of the 

leasing program. 

The authority to collect information 

for the Leasing Program is derived from 

54 U.S.C. 102101 et seq., 54 U.S.C. 

306121, and 36 CFR part 18. For 

competitive leasing opportunities, the 

regulations require the submission of 

proposals, or bids by parties interested 

in applying for a lease. The regulations 

also require that the Director approve 

lease amendments, construction or 

demolition of structures, and 

encumbrances on leasehold interests. 

We collect information from anyone 

who wishes to submit a bid or proposal 

to lease a property. The Director may 

issue a request for bids if the amount of 

rent is the only criterion for award of a 

lease. The Director issues a request for 

proposals when the award of a lease is 

based on selection criteria other than 

the rental rate. A request for proposals 

may be preceded by a request for 

qualifications to select a ‘‘short list’’ of 

potential offerors that meet the 

minimum management, financial, and 

other qualifications necessary for the 

submission of a proposal. 

We use the information collected to 

evaluate offers, proposed subleases or 

assignments, proposed construction or 

demolition, the merits of proposed lease 

amendments, and proposed 

encumbrances. The completion times 

for each information collection 

requirement vary substantially 

depending on the complexity of the 

leasing opportunity.
