Proposed Recreation Fee Site

AGENCY: Forest Service, USDA.

ACTION: Notice

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Bridger-Teton National Forest is proposing to establish a 
special recreation permit and special recreation permit fees along the 
Congressionally designated Wild and Scenic Snake River. Proposed 
special recreation permit fees would be used for operation, 
maintenance, and improvements to prevent degradation, enhance 
recreation opportunities, and preserve the outstandingly remarkable 
values described in the comprehensive river management plan for the 
Snake River. An analysis of nearby specialized recreation uses with 
similar amenities and services shows the proposed special recreation 
permit fees that would be charged are reasonable and typical of similar 
specialized recreation uses in the area.

DATES: If approved, the proposed special recreation permit and proposed 
special recreation permit fees would be established no earlier than six 
months following the publication of this notice in the Federal 
Register.

ADDRESSES: Bridger-Teton National Forest, Attention: Recreation Fees, 
340 North Cache, P.O. Box 1888, Jackson, WY 83001.

Program Manager, (406) 544-4734 or [email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Federal Lands Recreation Enhancement Act 
(16 U.S.C. 6803(b)) requires the Forest Service to publish a six-month 
advance notice in the Federal Register of establishment of proposed 
special recreation permits and proposed special recreation permit fees. 
Most of the proposed special recreation permit fees would be spent 
where they are collected to enhance the visitor experience in 
connection with the specialized recreation use covered by the proposed 
special recreation permit.
    A proposed special recreation permit would be required and a 
proposed special recreation permit fee would be charged of $5 per 
vehicle per day, $40 per vehicle per year, $20 per additional vehicle 
per year, $3 per outfitted customer, or $3 per noncommercial group 
member along the Snake River. Expenditures of special recreation permit 
fees collected would enhance recreation opportunities, improve customer 
service, and address maintenance needs along the Snake River.
