Establishes a Ski Area Fee Retention Account to fund ski area-related activities on National Forest System lands.
The Ski Hill Resources for Economic Development Act amends the Omnibus Parks and Public Lands Management Act of 1996 to create a Ski Area Fee Retention Account. This account will receive ski area permit rental charges, which will then be used to fund activities such as ski area administration, staff training, habitat restoration, law enforcement, and visitor services. The funds must supplement, not replace, existing appropriations. The account will also support avalanche information, search and rescue activities, and lease administration.
