Paddle Craft Reservations & Administrative Fee Schedule
1. Before a permit is issued to launch paddle craft an application needs to be completed requesting a specific launch time and date, and an administrative fee must be paid to confirm that reservation. Through the group leader signing the application, the entire group acknowledges that they agree to all permit conditions governing the trip and access to the launch site.
THE RESERVATION FEE FOR A PADDLE CRAFT LAUNCH IS $10.00 PER PERSON
2. This is an administrative fee that covers the cost of operating the reservation system and providing security measures for the Hoover Dam site including escort of all trips that utilize the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation launch site. The fee is per person and no additional fee is charged for each craft. Note: An additional $3.00 per person will be charged for the National Park Service entrance fee into Lake Mead National Recreation Area.
