One of the things that you can get at Park Service or Forest Service visitor
centers or "ranger stations" includes permits (camping, fire, etc.). My first
impression of a place tagged with tourism=information is that it is strictly
for local information, not that it also a place to get some specific types of
legal paperwork issued.
