AGENCY: Forest Service, Agriculture (USDA).

ACTION: Notice of proposed new fee site.

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

SUMMARY: The Pike and San Isabel National Forest is proposing to charge 
a new fee at one recreation site listed in SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION of 
this notice. Funds from fees would be used

[[Page 4194]]

for operation, maintenance, and improvements of this recreation site. 
An analysis of nearby developed recreation sites with similar amenities 
shows the proposed fee is reasonable and typical of similar sites in 
the area.

DATES: If approved, the new fee would be implemented no earlier than 
six months following the publication of this notice in the Federal 
Register.

ADDRESSES: Pike and San Isabel National Forest, 2840 Kachina Drive 
Pueblo, CO 81008.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ben Lara, District Recreation Program 
Manager, 719-530-3933, or [email protected].

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. The fee is only proposed at this 
time and will be determined upon further analysis and public comment. 
Reasonable fees, paid by users of these sites, will help ensure that 
the Forest can continue maintaining and improving recreation sites like 
this for future generations.
    The Forest is proposing a new fee at Iron City Cabin for $120 per 
night.
    New fees would provide increased visitor opportunities as well as 
increased staffing to address operations and maintenance needs and 
enhance customer service. Once public involvement is complete, these 
new fees will be reviewed by the Rocky Mountain Regional Office prior 
to a final decision and implementation.
    Advanced reservations for this cabin will be available through 
www.recreation.gov or by calling 1-877-444-6777. The reservation 
service charges an $8.00 fee for reservations.

    Dated: January 21, 2022.

Acting Associate Deputy Chief, National Forest System.
