Notice of New Fee Sites; Federal Lands Recreation Enhancement Act 
(Title VIII, Pub. L. 108-447)

AGENCY: Caribou-Targhee National Forest, USDA Forest Service.

ACTION: Notice of new fee sites.

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

SUMMARY: The Soda Springs Ranger District of the Caribou-Targhee 
National Forest will begin charging a $8.00 fee for overnight camping 
at the Pine Bar and Mill Canyon Campgrounds on the Soda Springs Ranger 
District. There will also be a $2.00 fee for an extra vehicle. 
Overnight camping at other campgrounds on the Caribou-Targhee National 
Forest has shown that the public appreciates and enjoys the 
availability of developed recreation campground facilities. Funds from 
the use of these developed campground facilities will be used for the 
continued operation and maintenance of Pine Bar and Mill Canyon 
Campgrounds.

DATES: Pine Bar and Mill Canyon Campgrounds will become available for 
use May 25, 2009.

ADDRESSES: Forest Supervisor, Caribou-Targhee National Forest, 1405 
Hollipark Dr., Idaho Falls, Idaho 83401.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Maury Young, Recreation Technician, 
208-847-8953, or Bart Andreasen, Recreation Fee Coordinator, 208-624-
1165.

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 Caribou-Targhee National 
Forest currently has 41 other developed campgrounds. These campgrounds 
are well used and are very popular during the summer and fall seasons. 
A business analysis of these two campgrounds has shown that people 
desire having this sort of developed recreation experience in the 
Caribou-Targhee National Forest. A market analysis indicates that the 
$8.00 per night fee is both reasonable and acceptable for this sort of 
recreation experience.

    Date: June 6, 2008.

Caribou-Targhee National Forest Supervisor.
