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 fee is 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.
The Forest is proposing a new fee at Iron City Cabin for $120 per
night.
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 the Rocky Mountain Regional Office prior
to a final decision and implementation.
Advanced reservations for this cabin 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: January 21, 2022.

Acting Associate Deputy Chief, National Forest System.
