What this funds

SEC. 122. Section 303102 of title 54, United States Code, shall be applied by substituting ``fiscal year Purpose: The authority to deposit receipts of $150.0 million annually into the Historic Preservation Fund, to be subject to annual appropriations, expires at the end of FY 2026. Recent enacted appropriations bills have provided single year extensions without amending the underlying U.S Code. The NPS proposes to extend the authority for funds to be deposited into the account to continue support for the programs funded from the Historic Preservation Fund. Exhibit F: Deferred Maintenance and Repairs The NPS reports annually on Deferred Maintenance & Repairs (DM&R). DM&R is defined as the cost of maintenance and repairs that were not performed when they should have been or were scheduled to be, and which are put off or delayed for a future period. Maintenance and repairs are activities directed replacement of parts, systems, or components; and other activities needed to preserve or maintain the asset. Maintenance and repairs, as distinguished from capital improvements, exclude activities directed towards expanding the capacity of an asset or otherwise upgrading it to serve needs different from, or significantly greater than, its current use. As of end of FY 2025, the NPS DM&R estimate is $24.2 Routine fluctuations in DM&R are typically driven by updates and improvements to the parametric condition assessment (PCA) models, expansion of PCA coverage to additional asset types, adjustments to park location factors (such as remoteness), inflation or deflation, and ongoing data validation efforts. While the majority of validation & verification (V&V) program activities concluded in FY 2025, NPS will continue routine V&V activities. Additionally, the NPS evaluated and refined the acceptable condition thresholds to better align with the PCA rating system and the Federal Highway Administration cycles, and enhance comparability of DM&R data over time. Estimating Deferred Maintenance and Repair Needs DM&R needs for the NPS portfolio are calculated using two components: PCAs and Federal Highways Administration (FHWA) assessments for paved roads, parking, bridge, and tunnel assets. In FY 2025 the DM&R is reported using the asset inventory reported to the Federal Real Property Profile (FRPP). The PCA method is an accepted industry standard recognized by the Federal Accounting Standards Advisory Board (FASAB) and FRPP guidance. A key component of the PCA approach is a rapid visual assessment in which the condition of asset components and systems is scored. Asset and facility-type- specific models within the PCA scoring tool use these condition ratings to estimate DM&R by relating individual component and system conditions to the asset's total Current Replacement Value (CRV). These parametric estimates are then combined with existing inspection data for FHWA-inspected assets to calculate total DM&R across the NPS portfolio. The tables below show FY 2025 DM&R by NPS Asset Category, DOI Budget Justification Category, and Asset Status. The NPS reports publicly on Federal Real Property Profile (FRPP) inventory, where DM&R is reported as Repair Needs (RN). Table 1: FY 2025 Deferred Maintenance and Repair by NPS Asset Category The NPS has reported its DM&R needs based on its asset categories, which are presented in the table above. Repair needs by asset status are also reported in a separate table below. The dataset is the same; in some years total dollar amounts may not match due to rounding.
