The Secretary can provide and rent housing to Park Service field employees, on or off park land, when it's needed. The Secretary can't build this housing where it would harm important park resources or the Service's mission.

(a) Rental Housing. To help the Secretary, acting through the Director, effectively manage System units, the Secretary may — where necessary and justified — (1) make employee housing available, whether the land is under the Service's control or not; and (2) rent that housing to field employees, charging rates based on the housing's reasonable value under the requirements of section 5911 of title 5. (b) Joint Development Authority. The Secretary may combine different statutory authorities together, where necessary and justified, to help provide affordable housing for field employees. (c) Construction Limitations on Federal Land. The Secretary cannot use any land to provide field employee housing under this subchapter if doing so would affect a "primary resource value" of the area, or would hurt the Service's mission. (d) Rental Rates. As much as practical, the Secretary must set rental rates for all quarters occupied by field employees based on the housing's reasonable value, following the requirements of section 5911 of title 5.
