Notice of New Fee Site; Federal Lands Recreation Enhancement Act 
(Title VIII, Pub. L. 108-447)

AGENCY: Fishlake National Forest, USDA Forest Service.

ACTION: Notice of new fee site.

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

SUMMARY: The Fremont River Ranger District of the Fishlake National 
Forest will begin charging an $8 fee for single family overnight 
camping at the Elkhorn Campground. There will also be a $4 fee for an 
extra vehicle. There is presently a fee of $25 to $45, depending on the 
number of people, for use of the group site at this campground. 
Overnight camping at other campgrounds on the Fishlake National Forest 
have shown that people appreciate and enjoy the availability of 
developed recreation facilities. Funds from the fee charges will be 
used for the continued operation and maintenance of the Elkhorn 
Campground.

DATES: Elkhorn Campground will become available for overnight camping 
on June 15, 2008 (weather permitting).

ADDRESSES: Forest Supervisor, Fishlake National Forest, 115 East, 900 
North, Richfield, Utah 84701

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: David C. Bell, Forester, 435-836-2811.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Federal Recreation Lands Enhancement Act 
(Title VII, Pub. L. 108-447) directs the Secretary of Agriculture to 
publish a six month advance notice in the Federal Register whenever new 
recreation fee areas are established. The Fremont River Ranger District 
of the Fishlake National Forest currently has several other fee 
campgrounds. These facilities are located on Thousand Lake Mountain in 
south central Utah. This area offers significant recreational camping, 
fishing, hiking, horseback riding, hunting and wildlife viewing 
opportunities. A market analysis indicates that the $8/per night single 
family camping fee is both reasonable and acceptable for this sort of 
unique recreation experience.

    Dated: June 6, 2007.
Mary C. Erickson,
Fishlake National Forest Supervisor.
