SUMMARY: The Coconino National Forest is proposing to charge new fees
at multiple recreation sites listed in SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION of

and improvements of these recreation sites. An analysis of nearby

fees are reasonable and typical of similar sites in the area.

six months following the publication of this notice in the Federal
Register.

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, a $5 day-use fee per vehicle is proposed
at Dry Creek, Fay Canyon, Mescal, Bell, Lava River Cave, and Bruce
Brocket Day use sites. The Red Rock Pass and full suite of Interagency
passes would be honored.
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.
Dated: June 22, 2022.

Acting Associate Deputy Chief, National Forest System.
