by the Department of Parks and Recreation. The Department of Parks
and Recreation may adjust the special permit fee for a permit issued
to a nonresident of this state under Section 38087.5, as necessary,
to recover the costs of this program. After deducting its
administrative and vendor costs, the Department of Parks and

upon appropriation, as provided in Sections 5090.50 and 5090.64 of

and sell the special permits directly or contract with vendors
according to rules and regulations established by that department.

special permit sold. The Department of Parks and Recreation may
solicit the participation of qualified retail commercial enterprises
engaged in the sale or rental of off-highway vehicles, equipment,
accessories, or supplies to act as authorized vendors of the special
permits and may authorize local and federal agencies that provide
off-highway vehicle opportunities to act as authorized vendors of the
special permits.
