Public Land Permits
Purpose of Public Land Permitting Program
The public land permits program assists faculty, staff, and students with legally accessing and using public lands for research and educational purposes or for any other organized UNLV activity. UNLV works very closely with the four federal land management agencies to provide efficient permitting service while heightening awareness of the laws governing the uses of federal public lands and the personal liabilities associated with use. Read the official UNLV Public Land Permits Policy.
Obtaining a Public Land Permit for a UNLV-Sponsored Activity
A permit is required for all organized activities that occur on public lands. An organized activity includes but is not limited to research, educational observations/activities, and UNLV-coordinated recreational uses such as hiking, camping, touring, or picnicking on public land by faculty, staff, or students. Contact the UNLV Public Land Permits Program Officer well before accessing public lands for any UNLV-sponsored activity.
