The Federal Recreation Lands Enhancement Act (Title VII, Pub. L. 108-447) directed the Secretary of Agriculture to publish a six-month advance notice in the Federal Register whenever new recreation fee areas are established. A market analysis indicated that the Start Printed Page 36091proposed fees are both reasonable and acceptable for the type of recreation experience they provide.
Once public involvement is complete, these new fees will be reviewed by a Resource Advisory Committee prior to a final decision and implementation.
Cabins will be available for overnight rental at $160 per night for the Burgdorf Guard Station, $100 per night for the Paddy Flat Guard Station, and $120 per night for a bunkhouse and $130 per night for a cabin at the Warren Guard Station. Seasons for each of these sites will be July 1 to September 30. Fees are assessed based on the level of amenities and services provided, cost of operation and maintenance, and market assessment. Funds from the rental will be used for the continued operation and maintenance of these sites.
People wanting to rent any of these sites will need to do so through Recreation.gov, at www.recreation.gov or by calling 1-877-444-6777. Recreation.gov charges an $8 fee for reservations.
