Amerikaans wildernisgebied waarvoor een wettelijke recreatievergoeding kan worden gevraagd Explanation: Admission to all federal fee areas for one year from date of purchase. Toegang tot alle Amerikaanse wildernisgebieden waarvoor een (nationaal) wettelijke recreatievergoeding kan worden gevraagd gedurende één jaar vanaf de datum van aanschaf. Je hebt 'user fees' en 'entrance fees' (zie reference) en misschien nog andere 'fees'. In dit geval gaat het om een 'entrance fee' maar in zijn algemeenheid gaat het bij 'fee' in federal fee areas niet alleen om 'entrance fees'. Bij mij komt het woord 'vergoeding' op bij fee in deze context, ik kan het mis hebben. Misschien weet jij een beter woord. Het National Wilderness Preservation System (NWPS) is een netwerk van wildernisgebieden in de Verenigde Staten die beschermd worden om ze in hun oorspronkelijke en wilde staat te bewaren. Vier federale overheidsagentschappen zijn bevoegd met het beheer van de wildernisgebieden (wilderness areas) in het NWPS: de National Park Service, de United States Forest Service, de United States Fish and Wildlife Service en het Bureau of Land Management. Activiteiten in de aangewezen wildernisgebieden worden gecoördineerd door het National Wilderness Preservation System. De term wildernis wordt in de Wilderness Act van 1964 gedefinieerd als een gebied waar de natuur onaangeroerd en onbeïnvloed is door de mens en waar de mens hooguit een bezoeker is die er niet blijft. Het gaat om grote stukken land in de handen van de overheid die beschermd en beheerd worden met het oog op het in stand houden van de oorspronkelijke en natuurlijke aard van het landschap en de levensvormen erin. Voor de wilderniservaring is het, volgens de Wilderness Act, belangrijk dat menselijke invloeden minimaal opvallen en dat wildernisgebieden de mens de kans bieden om alleen te zijn en aan een primitieve vorm van recreatie te doen. A wilderness, in contrast with those areas where man and his own works dominate the landscape, is hereby recognized as an area where the earth and community of life are untrammeled by man, where man himself is a visitor who does not remain. — Wilderness Act, 1964 Wildernisgebieden Er zijn tegenwoordig 756 federaal erkende en beschermde wildernisgebieden. Samen beslaan ze 443.045,55 km² land, wat meer is dan de oppervlakte van de staat Californië. Bijna de helft van al het wildernisgebied bevindt zich in de staat Alaska. De vijf grootste wildernisgebieden liggen bovendien allemaal in Alaska. De Wrangell – Saint Elias Wilderness, die deel uitmaakt van het Wrangell–St. Elias National Park and Preserve, is met zijn 3.674.009 hectare het grootste Amerikaanse wildernisgebied. http://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Wilderness_Preservatio... National Park Service Established in 1916, this agency helps protect nearly 400 national parks. They also aid local tribes and governments, as well as non-profit organizations and businesses, by preserving local history and revitalizing communities. U.S. Forest Service Established in 1905, this agency manages public lands in national forests or grasslands, which encompasses about 193 million acres of land.[17] U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Established in 1940, this agency manages 150 million acres of the National Wildlife Refugee System, as well as thousands of small wetlands and other special land areas. Some of their contributions include: protecting and conserving endangered species and their wildlife habitats and enforcing federal wildlife laws. Bureau of Land Management This agency's National Landscape Conservation System (NLCS) includes over 886 federally recognized areas and more than 27 million acres of land in the U.S. They aim to protect wilderness areas, as well as wild and scenic rivers, national monuments, and historic trails. It safeguards cultural sites and many Indian preserves of the western states. The mission of the NLCS is to "conserve, protect, and restore these nationally significant landscapes that are recognized for their outstanding cultural, ecological, and scientific values." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Wilderness_Preservatio... Washington, D.C. (November 24, 2004) – The National Recreation Fee Demonstration Program, created in 1996 as a three-year experiment, will soon be replaced by a new recreation fee program covering five federal agencies and providing a ten-year fee authorization. The new Federal Lands Recreation Enhancement Act, created under Section J of HR 4818, the omnibus appropriations measure for Fiscal Year 2005, is based upon legislation introduced by U.S. Representative Ralph Regula (OH-16) and amended and approved by the U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Resources. Mr. Regula played a central role in the development of the fee demo program and its extension as the Congress sought to craft long-term recreation fee policy. The new federal recreation fee program enjoys support from most recreation and tourism interests, largely because the required retention of at least 80% of collected fees at local sites should result in improved visitor experiences. Other key provisions of the legislation include: • well-defined guidelines on where recreation fees may be imposed, specifically prohibiting fees for locations which proved most controversial during the fee demonstration program. • the addition of the Bureau of Reclamation to the fee program. • clear direction to the five federal agencies to coordinate fee programs and avoid multiple or layered recreation fees. • continue special treatment for certain Americans, exempting or making nominal fees charged to children, seniors, people with disabilities and schools. etc. http://www.funoutdoors.com/node/view/1208 -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 day11 hrs (2014-01-03 14:59:45 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Een dilemma waar ik mee te maken had is in hoeverre de gebieden waarvoor een wettelijk recreatievergoeding kan worden gevraagd nu allemaal of in hun geheel worden bestempeld als wildernisgebied. Mijn indruk was dat dit in ieder geval in grote lijnen zo was. Om die mogelijke tekortkoming in nauwkeurigheid weg te nemen zou je ook kunnen overwegen: gebieden in eigendom van de Amerikaanse federale overheid waarvoor een wettelijk recreatievergoeding kan worden gevraagd om het korter te maken: gebieden van de Amerikaanse overheid met een recreatievergoeding Admission to all federal fee areas for one year from date of purchase. Toegang tot alle gebieden van de Amerikaanse overheid met een recreatievergoeding gedurende één jaar vanaf de datum van aanschaf. Immers het wettelijke kader is: The new Federal Lands Recreation Enhancement Act Federal lands are lands in the United States for which ownership is claimed by the U.S. federal government. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federal_lands -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 5 days (2014-01-07 13:48:11 GMT) Post-grading -------------------------------------------------- Dank je, Anna. Ik heb voor de veiligste optie als glossary entry gekozen. Prettig dag, Barend |

| Reference: federal fee areas Reference information: 'federal fee areas' zijn areas die vallen onder: USDA Forest Service, National Park Service, US Fish & Wildlife Service, Bureau of Land Management, and Bureau of Reclamation Many parks charge an entrance fee ranging from US$3 to $25 per week. Visitors can buy a federal interagency annual pass, known as the "America the Beautiful – National Parks and Federal Recreational Lands Pass," allowing unlimited entry to federal fee areas : (USDA Forest Service, National Park Service, US Fish & Wildlife Service, Bureau of Land Management, and Bureau of Reclamation) for $80 per year. This pass applies to entry fees only. Other applicable fees, such as camping, and backcountry access, still apply. U.S. citizens who are 62+ years old may purchase a version with the same privileges for $10, and citizens with permanent disabilities may receive a free version. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Park_Service Visitor Fees and Charges on Federal Land User fees are charged for specialized sites, facilities, or equipment or for services provided by the federal land management agency. These fees include camping, boat launching, or parking. These fees are becoming more prevalent by the U.S. Forest Service (USFS) and the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). Fees are often very controversial and not popular with local residents (see Red Rock Passports). See Recreation Fee Demonstration Program (USFS) More and more people recreate on national forests each year. As more and more people recreate, keeping up with the needs of those visitors and of the natural resource becomes more and more difficult. Seeing that national forests, parks, and other federal lands were suffering from the lack of funding to care for these lands, Congress passed a law to test bringing more funds to these lands in a new way. In 1996, Congress authorized the Recreation Fee Demonstration Program (fee demo) through Public Law 104-134 (as amended), for the Forest Service, National Park Service, Bureau of Land Management, and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. The intent of the program is to test entrance and user fees that are reinvested in federal lands where people recreate, to maintain and improve the natural resource, recreation facilities, and services. Each agency may charge fees at up to 100 projects. The Forest Service is testing fees at 81 projects in 34 states and in all regions of the country, including Puerto Rico. Entrance fees are charged by the National Park service and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. They are the only two federal agencies which charge entrance fees for recreational use. There are several different types of entrance fees. Golden Eagle: The Golden Eagle Passport sells for $65 and offers entrance into National Parks and 49 other federal areas that charge entrance fees (this includes Forest Service, Fish & Wildlife Service, and Bureau of Land Management areas). National Park Pass: The National Parks Pass is $50 and offers entrance to all National Parks that charge an entrance fee. Golden Age Passport: The Golden Age Passport is available to all U.S. citizens 62 or over with proof of age. This passport allows the holder into all National Parks and other federal recreation areas that charge entrance fees, and allows a 50% discount on use fees at these areas. The passport can be purchased for $10 in person at any National Park or other federal fee area. The Golden Age Passport is good for life. Golden Access Passport: Visitors must have a permanent disability to obtain a Golden Access Passport. Passes are available in person at any federal recreation site, including your National Parks. Duck Stamp: is the entrance fee to wildlife refuges. http://www.prm.nau.edu/prm346/mod_7_lesson_economic.htm |
