SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Federal Lands Recreation Enhancement Act
(16 U.S.C. 6803(b)) directs the Secretary of Agriculture to publish a
six-month advance notice in the Federal Register of establishment of
new recreation fee sites. In accordance with Forest Service Handbook
2309.13, Chapter 30, the Forest Service will publish the proposed new
recreation fee for public notice and comment in local newspapers and
other local publications. Most of the new recreation fee revenues would
be spent where they are collected to enhance the visitor experience at
the new recreation fee site.
An expanded amenity recreation fee of $75 per night would be
charged for rental of the Trail River Cabin. The recreation fee
revenues would support operation and maintenance of the cabin.
Reservations for rental of the cabin could be made online at
<a href="http://www.recreation.gov">www.recreation.gov</a> or by calling 877-444-6777. Reservations would cost
