Refuges in the State of Alaska use a different Special Use Permit application
form. It is used primarily to engage in Commercial Visitor Services
- outfitter/guides for hunting, fishing, canoeing, kayaking, and other
visitor services. Special Use Permits are obtained by submitting a Permit
Application (PDF) to the appropriate Refuge. Contact the refuge
manager for the fee information. The permit must be signed by the
refuge manager.
