Law

Lets the Interior Department renew some business leases in national parks without opening them to new offers.
Only applies if the business has had the lease at least 5 years and is following all the terms.
Park leaders must decide the renewal helps the park’s operations, not just the business.
May spur more investment in repairs and services at park buildings because tenants expect longer stays.
Fewer chances for new businesses to compete could mean less choice for visitors and possibly higher prices.
