AGENCY: Forest Service, Agriculture (USDA).
ACTION: Notice of proposed new fee site.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Cleveland National Forest is proposing to charge a new fee
at one recreation site listed in SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION of this
notice. Funds from fees would be used for operation, maintenance, and
improvements of this recreation site. An analysis of nearby developed
recreation sites with similar amenities shows the proposed fee is
reasonable and typical of similar sites in the area.
DATES: If approved, the new fees would be implemented no earlier than
six months following the publication of this notice in the Federal
Register.
ADDRESSES: Cleveland National Forest, 10845 Rancho Bernardo Road, Suite

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Joseph Raffaele, Forest Recreation
Program Manager, at 858-674-2961 or <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#1872776b7d68703679366a797e7e797d747d586d6b7c79367f776e"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="e2888d9187928acc83cc9083848483878e87a297918683cc858d94">[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 this site, will help ensure
that the Forest can continue maintaining and improving recreation sites
like this for future generations.
As part of this proposal, the Boulder Oaks Campground is proposing
a $5 per person/per night backpacker walk-in campsite fee.
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, this new
fee will be reviewed by a Recreation Resource Advisory Committee prior
to a final decision and implementation.
Advanced reservations 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: August 1, 2022.

Acting Associate Deputy Chief, National Forest System.
