MIAMI — The National Park Service will be waiving entry fees on Monday to mark the fifth anniversary of the Great American Outdoors Act.

President Donald Trump’s administration reported that the 2020 law made it possible for the National Parks and Public Land Legacy Restoration Fund to fund $6.65 billion in maintenance.

In South Florida, the agency cares for the Everglades National Park, Biscayne National Park, and Dry Tortugas.
