The FY2027 President's Budget requests $0.3M for Commercial Film and Photography Fees, within Interior's Service Charges, Deposits, and Forfeitures account. That is up 1060% on the FY2026 figure of $0.0M, which is the enacted appropriation.
FY2026–FY2027
| Fiscal year | Basis | Amount |
|---|---|---|
| FY2026 | enacted | $0.0M |
| FY2027 | request | $0.3M |
Bases are separate columns and are never summed into one figure.
Interior discretionary budget authority
From the OMB Public Budget Database — clean, summable, and the figure to cite for an agency total. It is the whole of Interior's discretionary request, not a total of the parsed lines above, and this page never adds the two together.
What this funds
