Corps of Engineers Resumes Collection of Day-Use Fees

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. - The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Little Rock District is resuming the collection of fees at several day use recreation areas. Fee collections were suspended earlier this year when recreation areas were closed due to COVID-19 precautions.

USACE collects fees at its day use swimming beaches, picnic areas and boat launch ramps. Fees are also collected for camping and for Special Use Permits, which cover events, facilities and group activities.

While visiting USACE recreation areas, visitors are encouraged to practice social distancing and other COVID-19 safety precautions required and recommended by local, state and federal authorities, to include the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
