State recreation officials are asking residents for input on the 2025-30 Statewide Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan.

The plan, “Shaping Outdoor Recreation from Mountains to Sea,” must be updated every five years for the state to be eligible for money from the federal Land and Water Conservation Fund.

The online public opinion survey is open through Sept. 30.

There is a separate survey for county, municipality, state, and federal recreation providers. Contact grants@ncparks.gov for that link.

The North Carolina Department of Natural and Cultural Resources and the Division of Parks and Recreation manage the state’s allocation from the Land and Water Conservation Fund. In 2020, the federal Great American Outdoors Act permanently made offshore oil and natural gas royalties a dedicated source for the fund.
