16 U.S.C. § 410ff–6 — Entrance or admission fees prohibited

Regardless of any other law that might otherwise allow it, no fee may be charged for entrance or admission to Channel Islands National Park. This is a flat prohibition: it overrides any general law that lets the National Park Service or the Secretary of the Interior charge visitors an entrance fee at other parks. The rule applies specifically to Channel Islands National Park, meaning the public may enter and visit the park's islands and waters without paying an admission charge, even though many other national parks do charge such fees. The phrase "notwithstanding any other provision of law" makes clear that this ban takes priority over any conflicting fee authority found elsewhere in federal law.
