Delaware Water Gap National

the largest natural area in the National
Park System between Virginia and
Maine and one of the largest protected

natural areas in the metropolitan
corridor extending from Washington,
DC, to Boston, MA. Located near the
New York City and Philadelphia
metropolitan areas, and easily accessible
by private vehicle, the recreation area
offers a variety of recreational
opportunities. These include hiking,
swimming, fishing, hunting, boating,
pleasure driving, and sight-seeing;
learning about natural and cultural
history; and enjoying the solitude of a
rural environment and a change of pace.
The waters of the Middle Delaware
National Scenic & Recreational River are
of exceptional quality. The 125 miles of
the Delaware River that includes the
Upper Delaware National Scenic &
Recreational River, Delaware Gap
National Recreation Area (Middle
Delaware), and the Lower Delaware
National Wild & Scenic River are
classified as Special Protection Waters
which have exceptionally high scenic,
recreational and ecological values. The
free-flowing Delaware River cuts
through a narrow valley, and the
adjacent lands contain streams and
waterfalls, geologic features, a variety of
plants and wildlife, and cultural
resources. The National Park Service
(NPS) administers the lands and waters
within the recreation area to provide
outdoor recreation opportunities while
conserving the natural, cultural and
scenic resources of the recreation area.
In so doing, the NPS works
cooperatively with surrounding
communities and the public to achieve
the conservation goals of the Delaware
River region.
Regulatory Reform Initiative
On February 24, 2017, President
Trump issued Executive Order 13777,
‘‘Enforcing the Regulatory Reform
Agenda.’’ This Executive Order
established a regulatory reform initiative
to alleviate unnecessary burdens placed
on the American people. As part of the
Department of the Interior’s approach

for implementing this initiative, the
NPS is reviewing its regulations in order
to identify those that should be
repealed, replaced, or modified. These
include regulations that are outdated or
unnecessary.
Final Rule
The NPS has identified several special
regulations applicable to the recreation
area that are outdated and no longer
enforced by the NPS. The NPS is
removing these regulations to reduce a
potential source of confusion for the
public about what activities are allowed
within the recreation area. These
regulations are codified in 36 CFR
7.71(c)–(e) and address rock climbing
and commercial vehicles.
Paragraph (c) requires visitors to
register with the Superintendent prior to
technical rock climbing. For the
program to function properly climbers
would register with the NPS prior to a
climb, and then notify the NPS when
the climb had safely concluded. The
NPS found that the registration
requirement triggered search missions
that often were unfounded or
unnecessary, because this registration
system was not used properly by the
public. As a result, the NPS determined
that the costs associated with the
program outweighed any potential
benefits to public safety from its
implementation. The registration
requirement for technical rock climbing
was operationally eliminated more than
25 years ago and has not been enforced
since.
Paragraphs (d) and (e) identify the
types of commercial vehicles that may
be operated within DEWA and establish
a fee schedule for those vehicles. The
legislation authorizing the regulations
about commercial vehicles has expired
and was replaced in 2018 with a new
Congressional authorization, Public Law
115–101 (January 8, 2018), that
authorized the Superintendent to
establish a fee and permit program.
Commercial vehicle rules will now be
