SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Abstract

    The National Park Service Act of 1916, 38 Stat 535, 16 U.S.C. 1, et 
seq., requires that the NPS preserve national parks for the use and 
enjoyment of present and future generations. At the field level, this 
means resource preservation, public education, facility maintenance and 
operation, and physical developments as are necessary for public use, 
health, and safety. Other Federal mandates (National Environmental 
Policy Act and NPS Management Policies) require visitor use data in the 
impact assessment of development on users and resources as part of each 
park's general management plan. The Government Performance and Results 
Act (GPRA) of 1993 (Pub. L. 103-62) requires that the NPS develop goals 
to improve program effectiveness and public accountability and to 
measure performance related to these goals. The Visitor Survey Card 
(VSC) project measures performance toward those goals through a short 
visitor survey card. The project is an element of the NPS Strategic 
Plan and the Department of the Interior (DOI) Strategic Plan.
    The NPS has used the VSC to conduct surveys at approximately 330 
National Park Service units annually since 1998. The purpose of the VSC 
is to measure visitors' opinions about park facilities, services, and 
recreational opportunities in each park unit and System-wide. This 
effort is required by GPRA and other NPS and DOI strategic planning 
efforts. Data from the proposed survey is needed to assess performance 
regarding NPS GPRA goals IIa1A and IIb1.
    In addition, the survey collects data to support the DOI Strategic 
Plan goal on visitor satisfaction with the value for entrance fees paid 
to access public lands managed by the DOI. NPS performance on all goals 
measured in this study will contribute to DOI Department-wide 
performance reports. Results of the VSC will also be used by park 
managers to improve visitor services at the approximately 330 units of 
the National Park System where the survey is administered.
    The VSC is a component of the Visitor Services Project, which is 
funded by the NPS through a cooperative agreement with the Park Studies 
Unit at the University of Idaho, and has been in use since 1998.
