AGENCY: Forest Service, USDA.

ACTION: Notice of Proposed New Fee Site.

SUMMARY: The National Forests in Alabama are proposing to charge a new 
fee at the Conecuh Shooting Range. Fees are assessed based on the level 
of amenities and services provided, cost of operation and maintenance, 
market assessment and public comment. Funds from fees would be used for 
the continued operation and maintenance of this shooting range 
including lead abatement, berm maintenance, and removal of shell 
casings and debris. The proposed new fees to help maintain this site 
would be: $5 per person per day and $50 for an annual permit.

DATES: Send any comments about these fee proposals by August 15, 2019, 
so comments can be compiled, analyzed and shared with a Recreation 
Resource Advisory Committee. New fees would begin after December 2019.

ADDRESSES: Cherie Hamilton, Forest Supervisor, National Forests in 
Alabama, 2946 Chestnut Street Montgomery, Alabama 36107; or via 
facsimile 334-241-8111.

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. Once public involvement is 
complete, these new fees will be reviewed by a Recreation Resource 
Advisory Committee prior to a final decision and implementation.
