Posts - Bill - S 472 Ski Hill Resources for Economic Development Act

senate 02/06/2025 - 119th Congress

We're proposing the Ski Hill Resources for Economic Development Act to create a Ski Area Fee Retention Account. This would allow a portion of fees collected from ski area permits to be reinvested in local and national recreational projects, enhancing services and infrastructure, while ensuring sustainable management of ski areas within the National Forest System.

Ski area investment is great, but don't snow over broader public land responsibilities!
