HB 1814, the "State Parks Emergency Maintenance Act," requires Oklahoma's Tourism and Recreation Department to submit an annual "Eight-Year State Parks Emergency Maintenance Plan" starting December 31, 2025. The plan must detail priority maintenance and construction projects, their costs, completion timelines, and status of previously funded work. It also establishes a revolving fund to finance these projects, limiting operational spending to no more than 20% of annual fund deposits. The bill becomes effective July 1, 2025, to address critical infrastructure needs across Oklahoma's state parks system.
