SUMMARY: The Forest Service published a document in the Federal 
Register on September 30, 2019, requesting for comments on proposed new 
recreation fees for three recreation sites on the George Washington and 
Jefferson National Forests. The document contained incorrect 
information on the type of fee and features of recreation sites 
required in order to charge that fee type. The Forest Service is 
reopening the comment period. The previous comment period ended on 
October 15, 2019. In addition to comments received under this notice, 
comments previously submitted in response to the notice published 
during the comment period announced September 30, 2019, will be 
considered.

DATES: Comments on the fee changes will be accepted through December 
10, 2019. The fees will become available pending a recommendation from 
the Southern Region Recreation Resource Advisory Committee. If approved 
by the Regional Forester, implementation of new fees will occur no 
sooner than 180 days from the date of publication in the Federal 
Register.

ADDRESSES: Written comments concerning this notice should be addressed 
to the Supervisor's Office at: Joby P. Timm, Forest Supervisor, George 
Washington and Jefferson National Forests, 5162 Valleypointe Parkway, 
Roanoke, VA 24019, Attention Recreation Fee Coordinator.

Coordinator, 540-265-5166. Information about proposed fee changes can

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    Correction: In the Federal Register of September 30, 2019, in FR 
Doc. 2019-21164, on page 51510, in the first column, correct the fifth

required features to

allow a fee to be charged. Those features include designated parking 
area, permanent toilets, increased patrols, and picnic tables. These 
expanded amenity fee sites will honor all applicable Interagency 
Passes.
