National Park Restoration Act

This bill establishes the National Park Restoration Fund in the Treasury to be made available to the Department of the Interior for priority deferred maintenance needs that support critical infrastructure and visitor services of the National Park Service.

Funds deposited through FY2027 are calculated according to a formula that uses as a factor the total amount of energy development revenues due and payable to the federal government.

Interior may not use amounts in the fund to acquire lands.

Interior shall submit to Congress a list of the projects for which amounts from the fund are allocated, including a summary of each project.
