AGENCY:
Payette National Forest, Forest Service, USDA.
ACTION:
Notice of Proposed New Fee Site.
SUMMARY:
The Payette National Forest is proposing to charge a $85 fee at Burgdorf Rental Cabin from June 1 to October 15 and a $65 fee from October 16 to June 1 with no water available; a $65 fee at the Paddy Flat Rental Cabin; and a $65 fee at the Lake Fork Rental Cabin. Fees are assessed based on the level of amenities and services provided, cost of operations and maintenance, and market assessment. The fee is proposed and will be determined upon further analysis and public comment. Funds from fees would be used for the continued operation and maintenance and improvements of these rental cabins.
An analysis of the nearby private rental cabins with similar amenities shows that the proposed fees are reasonable and typical of similar sites in the area.
