Notice of Proposed New Fee Sites
AGENCY: Forest Service, Agriculture (USDA).
ACTION: Notice of proposed new fee sites.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Fishlake National Forest is proposing to charge new fees
at three recreation sites listed in SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION of this
notice. Funds from fees would be used for operation, maintenance, and
improvements of these recreation sites. An analysis of nearby developed
recreation sites with similar amenities shows the proposed fees are
reasonable and typical of similar sites in the area.
DATES: If approved, the new fee would be implemented no earlier than
six months following the publication of this notice in the Federal
Register.
ADDRESSES: Fishlake National Forest, 115 East 900, North Richfield,
Utah 84701.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Daniel Child, Forest Recreation
Officer, 435-896-9233 or <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#5337323d3a363f7d303b3a3f3713262037327d343c25"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="0367626d6a666f2d606b6a6f6743767067622d646c75">[email protected]</span></a>.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 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. The fees are only proposed at
this time and will be determined upon further analysis and public
comment. Reasonable fees, paid by users of these sites, will help
ensure that the Forest can continue maintaining and improving
recreation sites like this for future generations.
As part of this proposal, the Twin Creeks Amphitheatre group picnic
site is proposed for $60 per day. In addition, the proposal would
implement new fees at two recreation rentals: Mt. Terrill Guard Station
at $50 per night and Big Flat Guard Station at $50-$75 per night,
depending on season.
New fees would provide increased visitor opportunities as well as
increased staffing to address operations and maintenance needs and
enhance customer service. Once public involvement is complete, these
new fees will be reviewed by a Recreation Resource Advisory Committee
prior to a final decision and implementation.
Advanced reservations for the group picnic site and cabins will be
available through <a href="http://www.recreation.gov">www.recreation.gov</a> or by calling 1-877-444-6777. The
reservation service charges an $8.00 fee for reservations.
Dated: December 21, 2021.

Acting Associate Deputy Chief, National Forest System.
