FILMING DATE(s)
TITLE OF PROJECT
Generators may not be placed within 100 feet of residences or occupied buildings.
PROHIBITED ACTIVITIES:
Activities having the potential to significantly impact, alter or damage park resources are prohibited. The following are also

in buildings, on boardwalks, or in vegetated areas, (6) disrobing in public or nudity, (7) use of meadow areas except on trails
or already disturbed areas as determined by State Parks, not the Permittee, (8) harassment of wildlife (filming of wildlife is
permitted if there is no disturbance, feeding, teasing, or manipulation of resident or free-roaming animals). The use of
domesticated dogs and cats is permitted if humane treatment is accorded the animal at all times and State Park regulations are
strictly observed. For example, domesticated animals must be under physical control at all times. Wildlife captured
elsewhere may not be used in any in-park filming, whether trained or not. Animals may not be tethered to trees at any time.
FILMING FEES:
In addition to the application fee, designated site and other additional fees (copy attached) may be required and are due and
payable to State Parks upon signature of this Permit.
DISRUPTION OF VISITOR ACTIVITIES:
Filming activities may not unduly conflict with visitor use or experience in the park. The public shall be informed, at the
Permittee’s expense, of any unusual or long-term closure or delay expected due to the filming activity. The Permittee should
avoid filming in high public use areas and on weekends and holidays. The Permittee understands that this Permit may be
cancelled for those locations that are subject to intensive public use, or if filming is scheduled during busy weekend and
holiday dates. To the extent possible, the public must be allowed to view production activities.
SET CONSTRUCTION:
Set construction must be approved in advance by State Parks’ representative, and plans and drawings may be required. Sets
may be constructed on highly disturbed areas (i.e. parking areas, road turnouts, etc.). Undisturbed areas may be used,
provided all materials and equipment are hand carried to the site, no vehicles are used, and the area is returned to it original
condition following filming. No foundations may be poured, and structures must be self-supporting.
CLOSURES:
The Permittee is not allowed to conduct activities or have access to areas not generally accessible to the general public, unless
specific written approval is received from State Parks. No filming will be permitted during periods of extreme weather
conditions, fire danger, or fire closure.
STATE PARKS LOGO:
The logo of the Washington State Parks and Recreation Commission is a registered trademark. If the Permittee wishes to use
the State Parks logo, written permission of State Parks is required. This shall not be construed to prohibit incidental filming
of the logo, except where that filming is for advertising, promotional, or commercial purposes. Incidental filming includes
casual appearance of the logo, as on the shoulder patch of an uniformed employee, a State Parks vehicle, or an entrance or
similar sign.
ADDITIONAL PERMITTING:
Permittee shall obtain and keep in force all additionally required permits, licenses, permissions, consents, and approval
required by governmental agencies or third parties in connection with activities performed under this permit. Application for
permits shall be at the sole risk, cost, and expense of the permittee. Permittee is solely responsible for determining what
permits are required.
USE OF AIRCRAFT:
Aircraft may not land in any park area without the express written permission of State Parks pursuant to WAC 352-32-130.
The use of aircraft in connection with filming may require a Certificate of Waiver issued by the Federal Aviation
Administration, granting a waiver of FAR 91.119(b) and (c), Minimum Safe Altitude. The Applicant must determine the
need for this waiver prior to applying for a permit. If a waiver is required, a copy of the waiver and the Motion Picture and
Television Flight Operations Manual must be provided to State Parks with the Application. Use of helicopters requires an
additional cash damage deposit as determined by State Parks. Pursuant to WAC 352-32-130(5), State parks may specify
additional restrictions for the use of such aircraft.
NATURAL AND CULTURAL RESOURCES:
Geological and archaeological resources must not be disturbed. No materials, adhesives, paints, etc. may be used on any of
these park resources. Any rocks, sand, or other material that is needed for production must be brought onto the set, and then
removed after the shoot, by the Permittee. No devices may be driven into the rocks, or cliff areas. Any damage to park
resources may result in closing the area to future filming.
Film Permit Application Packet
FILMING DATE(s)
TITLE OF PROJECT
CLEAN UP:
All shooting locations, storage areas, etc. are to be cleared of all equipment, props, and trash and returned to their original
condition to the satisfaction of the monitoring State Parks’ representative following completion of filming. Major sets may
receive extensions on clean up times based on the judgement of State Parks’ representative. All garbage and debris, including
any animal feces, must be removed from the park and properly disposed of upon completion of each day's shooting. Film
companies will provide and utilize their own trash receptacles. It is the Permittee's responsibility to inform contracted
companies (caterers, etc.) of these requirements.
SECURITY:
The Permittee may, at Permittee's expense, provide licensed security guards for site locations and storage areas. If State
Parks’ personnel are used for providing security or traffic control, the Permittee will be responsible for the costs of staff time
involved. Non-commissioned security personnel may not be in possession of firearms on State Parks’ property. Authorized
and uniformed law enforcement officers (rangers, police, sheriff, state patrol) will be allowed to carry firearms. Public access
to the set, storage, and staging areas may be restricted as determined by State Parks’ representative. The Permittee will
provide signs explaining that filming is underway, and will also provide barricade tape, or other physical barrier, as necessary
for the safety of the public.
MOTOR VEHICLES:
The Permittee agrees to abide by all motor vehicle laws of the state of Washington. The Permittee shall describe any
proposed activity that would result in the operation of a vehicle outside of the motor vehicle laws in the general description
portion of this permit.
BONDS AND DAMAGE DEPOSITS:
State Parks may require the Permittee to post a bond or damage deposit payable to State Parks in an amount sufficient to
cover any potential damages to park resources or facilities that may occur during filming.
INSURANCE:
The Permittee agrees to provide a certificate of insurance in the amount of $1,000,000 general liability and $1,000,000
personal injury naming State Parks as an additional insured. The Permittee shall provide to State Parks a copy of the
certificate of insurance evidencing such coverage prior to filming. Should claims arise which result in an award in excess of
$1,000,000, the Permittee shall be wholly responsible for the amount of the excess.
ILLEGAL DISCRIMINATION:
The Permittee shall comply with the provisions of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (42 USC 200d); Section 504 of the
Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (29 USC 794); Chapter 49.60, Revised Code of Washington; and Title I of the Americans with
Disabilities Act (42 USC 12111-12117), as now or hereafter amended. The Permittee shall not discriminate on the grounds
of race, color, national origin, sex, sexual orientation, religion, marital status, age, creed, Vietnam-era and disabled veterans
status, or the presence of any sensory, mental, or physical disability.
PERMIT ASSIGNMENT:
This Permit is non-transferable and non-assignable. Any attempt to transfer or assign an issued permit shall cause immediate
cancellation of the Permit.
WAIVER OF RIGHTS:
State Parks’ failure to insist upon the strict performance of any provision of this Permit or to exercise any right based upon
breach thereof or the acceptance of any performance during such breach shall not constitute a waiver of any right under this
Permit.
HOLD HARMLESS:
It is understood and agreed by State Parks and the Permittee that this Permit is solely for the benefit of the parties hereto and
gives no right to any other party. No joint venture or partnership is formed as a result of this Permit. Each party hereto
agrees to be responsible and assumes liability for its own wrongful or negligent acts or omissions, or those of its officers,
agents, or employees to the fullest extent required by law, and agrees to save, indemnify, defend, or hold the other party
harmless for any such liability. In the case of negligence of both State Parks and the Permittee, any damages allowed shall be
levied in proportion to the percentage of negligence attributable to each party, and each party shall have the right to seek
contribution from the other party in proportion to the percentage of negligence attributable to the other party.
SUSPENSION OF FILMING:
State Parks reserves the right to suspend production if, in the opinion of State Parks’ representative, there appears to be abuse
of or a likelihood of damage to any of the properties, road surfaces, or facilities of State Parks.
CANCELLATION OF PERMIT:
Film Permit Application Packet
FILMING DATE(s)
TITLE OF PROJECT
The Permittee, by signature of this Permit, agrees that State Parks may cancel this Permit for any of the following reasons: (1)
if there is clear danger to public health and safety; (2) if, in the opinion of State Parks’ representative, the filming activity
requested represents an unreasonable threat to park resources, facilities, or wildlife; (3) if it is determined that supervisory
requirements for the proposed filming project will place unreasonable burdens on staff capacity, irrespective of the
Permittee's willingness to pay supervisory costs; (4) if the proposed filming would unduly conflict with visitors’ normal use
of the park; (5) if film-makers enter areas closed to the general visiting public, or allow activities not permitted to the average
visitor except for cooperative activities as an agent of State Parks.
This Permit may also be cancelled by State Parks without notice if the terms of the permit are violated. Deliberate
infractions of the terms of the filming permit or the deliberate making of false or misleading statements concerning
intended actions in order to obtain a permit are causes for immediate cancellation of the permit and cause for possible
prosecution. The Permit may be cancelled by State Parks if the location is changed and/or expanded without the written
permission of State Parks.
Reimbursement for services performed by State Parks and not otherwise paid for by the Permittee prior to the effective
date of such cancellation shall be as State Parks reasonably determines.
GOVERNING LAW:
This Permit shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and the validity and performance hereof shall be governed by
the laws of the state of Washington. Venue of any suit between the parties arising out of this Permit shall be the Superior
Court of Thurston County, Washington.
SEVERABILITY:
In the event any term or condition of this Permit or application thereof to any person or circumstances is held invalid, such
invalidity shall not affect other terms, conditions, or applications of this Permit which can be given effect without the invalid
term, condition, or application. To this end, the terms and conditions of this Permit are declared severable.
