What is the Public Lands Permit Program?
Commercial entities [which include universities] are required by law to obtain a permit for activities held on public lands. The Permit Program is a service to all members of the UNLV campus in the pursuit of a public land use permit. It serves as a single point of contact for UNLV members to communicate with the federal agencies who have jurisdiction over the land. Using this service will save you time and frustration in obtaining a permit. Be aware that if you enter these lands without a permit as a UNLV group you may be personally liable.
