§1819. Charge user fees
With the consent of the Governor and the commissioner, the bureau may charge reasonable fees for services, accommodations and use. [1997, c. 678, §13 (NEW).]
Unless otherwise provided by law, all user fees derived from use of state parks, historic sites and the Allagash Wilderness Waterway and other payments for services received under this section accrue to the General Fund, except that all revenues resulting from an increase in fees after July 1, 1990 in the Allagash Wilderness Waterway accrue to a dedicated revenue account to be used for capital improvements in the Allagash Wilderness Waterway. When fees may be more efficiently collected through 3rd-party contracts, a percentage of the fee may be retained by the contractor for services as agreed upon by the bureau. [1997, c. 678, §13 (NEW).]
Any disabled veteran displaying on the veteran's motor vehicle special designating plates or placards issued in accordance with Title 29-A, section 523, subsections 1 and 2 is not required to pay a fee for admission to any state-owned park, camping area or beach. [1997, c. 678, §13 (NEW).]
