Forest
AGENCY: Forest Service, USDA.
ACTION: Notice of proposed new fee sites.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Daniel Boone National Forest in Kentucky is proposing to
charge new fees at nine recreation sites. These sites currently have
amenities that are typically associated with fee areas. 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
these recreation sites.
DATES: Send any comments on the proposed new fees by October 21, 2019.
The comments will be compiled, analyzed, and shared with the Southern
Region Recreation Resource Advisory Committee. New fee charges would
begin after January 2020.
ADDRESSES: Written comments concerning this notice should be addressed
to the Supervisor's Office: Dan Olsen, Forest Supervisor, Daniel Boone
National Forest, 1700 Bypass Road, Winchester, KY 40391.

fee changes can be found on the Daniel Boone National Forest website at
https://www.fs.usda.gov/dbnf/.
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. New fee sites proposed at $5
daily, $7 for three days, and $50 annually includes Bangor,
Leatherwood, Clear Creek, Bee Rock and Craigs Creek boat ramps, Whitman
Branch Shooting Range, and Billy Branch Group Picnic Site. Great
Meadows Campground and S-Tree Campground are proposed at $15/night for
a single site and $20/night for a double site. These sites will accept
the suite of America the Beautiful, the National Parks and Federal
Recreational Lands' (interagency) passes. Once public involvement is
complete, these new fees will be reviewed by the Recreation Resource
Advisory Committee prior to final decision and implementation.
