Many improvements will be or have been made in Ashley National Forest thanks to the Great American Outdoor Act that has an impact on recreation infrastructure. The act was signed into law in the summer of 2020 and enables federal land managers to take aggressive steps to address deferred maintenance and other infrastructure projects on national forests and grasslands. Ashley National Forest received more than $8 million in funding for 20 projects from 2021 to 2023. Some of the projects include $50,000 dollars for Little Hole National Recreation Trail, $125,000 dollars for Ashley Wastewater and Water System Deferred Maintenance, $180,000 dollars for Uinta Guard Station Rehabilitation, $250,000 dollars for Antelope Waterline Replacement, $250,000 dollars for Antelope Campground Waterline Replacement, and $995,000 dollars for Forest wide public restroom replacement.
