Superintendent's Compendium

National Park Service (NPS) regulations applicable to the protection and equitable public use of units of the National Park System grant specified authorities to a park superintendent to allow or restrict certain activities.

36 CFR § 1.7(4)(b) – “…the superintendent shall compile in writing all the designations, closures, permit requirements and other restrictions imposed under discretionary authority. This compilation shall be updated annually and made available to the public upon request.”

NPS regulations are found in Titles 36 and 43 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) and created under authority and responsibility granted the Secretary of Interior in Titles 16 and 54 of the United States Code. The following compendium comprises a listing of NPS regulations where the superintendent has exercised discretionary authority to make designations or impose public use restrictions or conditions in park areas. The applicability and scope of the compendium is articulated in 36 CFR Sections 1.2 and 13.2, and 43 CFR Section 36.1.

A complete and accurate picture of regulations governing use and protection of Klondike Gold Rush National Historical Park can only be gained by viewing this compendium in context with the full body of applicable regulations found in Titles 36 and 43 CFR. That is, unless otherwise stated, the regulatory provisions herein apply in addition to the requirements contained in 36 and 43 CFR, since the compendium only addresses restrictions imposed under the discretionary authority of the superintendent, or regulations which authorize special designations, closures, or other use limits. The use of this compendium, in conjunction with park brochures, maps, signs, and other media will provide a clear understanding of park rules and regulations for both the National Park Service employees and park visitors. Your comments and suggestions are welcome.
