The DCNR’s general fund received just over $105 million in 2017-18, an amount that has stayed about the same for the last 15 years and about 0.16% of the state’s general budget, according to the DCNR and an analysis by the parks advocates. State park staff hit a high of more than 2,200 employees around 1990; by 2015, it had dropped to just over 1,400.
