Notice of Proposed New Fee Site, Stony Gorge Reservoir, Elk 
Creek, California; Federal Lands Recreation Enhancement Act

AGENCY: Bureau of Reclamation, Interior.

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: The Bureau of Reclamation is proposing to charge and retain 
fees for overnight camping at Stony Gorge Reservoir. Special Recreation 
Event authorization fees are also proposed to be retained under this 
authority.

DATES: Submit written comments on the new fee site on or before June 3, 
2015. New fees are scheduled to begin on this date. Public meeting 
dates and locations will be announced locally.

ADDRESSES: Send written comments on the proposed new fee site to Brian 
Person, Area Manager, Northern California Area Office, Bureau of 
Reclamation, 16349 Shasta Dam Boulevard, Shasta Lake, California 96019.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Richard Robertson, Chief, Water and 
Lands Division, P.O. Box 988, Willows, California 95988-0988; or call 
530-934-1383. Information about proposed fee changes can also be found 
on the Bureau of Reclamation, Northern California Area Office Web site: 
http://www.usbr.gov/mp/ncao.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The proposed fee for overnight camping will 
be $15 per site per night for all non-group site camping. Group site 
overnight fees will be $75. Interagency Senior Passes will be accepted 
for individual overnight camping. An analysis of the nearby Federal and 
state recreation offerings with similar amenities shows that the 
proposed fees are reasonable and typical of similar sites in the area. 
Funds from fees will be used for the continued operation, maintenance, 
and improvements of the reservoir area recreation amenities and related 
programs.
    The Federal Lands Recreation Enhancement Act (Title VII, Pub. L. 
108-447) directed the Secretary of the Interior to publish a 6-month 
advance notice in the Federal Register whenever new recreation fee 
areas are established. Once public involvement is complete, these new 
fees will be reviewed by the Bureau of Reclamation Mid-Pacific Regional 
Director prior to a final decision and implementation. People wanting 
to reserve these recreation sites would need to do so through the 
National Recreation Reservation Service at www.recreation.gov, or by 
calling 1-877-444-6777 when it becomes available.
