By clicking submit, I intend to arrange a meeting with the specified Park’s Superintendent at his/her earliest convenience to discuss my upcoming project and apply for a state parks permit. I understand that application should be submitted at least 14 days prior to on-site production, that a Special Activity fee of $35.00 must be given to the Park Superintendent at the time of walk-through should my application be accepted, and a permit number will be given to me.

By submitting this form, I attest that the information provided herein is complete, correct, and in no way misleading or false; that I am fully-authorized to represent the production stated and will work with NC state officials to adhere to their safety regulations to protect property and lives.
