Notice of Special Recreation Permit
Fee Adjustments and Supplementary
Rule Revision for Use of All Arizona
and California Long-Term Visitor Areas
Bureau of Land Management,
Interior.
ACTION: Adjustment of Special
Recreation Permit fees and revision of
supplementary rules for Long-Term
Visitor Areas managed by the California
Desert District, California, and the
Colorado River District, Arizona.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: The Bureau of Land
Management (BLM) Yuma, Palm
Springs-South Coast, and El Centro
Field Offices are: (1) Adjusting the
Special Recreation Permit (SRP) fees for
recreational use of Long-Term Visitor
Areas (LTVA), and (2) amending the
supplementary rules applying to the
LTVA Program. The BLM State
Directors are authorized to adjust SRP
fees for recreational use of special areas,
as they find it necessary (43 CFR
2932.31(d)). The amendment of the
supplementary rules is only a technical
change that eliminates the need to
reprint the Supplementary Rule
pamphlet after every change in the
LTVA fee schedule. The amendment is
not a substantive change in the visitor
rules of conduct for the LTVAs.
DATES: Effective date: September 25,
2007.
ADDRESSES: You may send inquiries or
suggestions to the BLM Yuma Field
Office, 2555 East Gila Ridge Road,
Yuma, Arizona 85365; the BLM Palm

Box 581260 (690 West Garnet Avenue);

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Discussion of the LTVA Program
The BLM’s LTVA program was
established in 1983 to meet the longterm camping needs of winter visitors
staying on the public lands. The LTVAs
have been designated as ‘‘special areas’’
where it has been determined that the
resources require special management
and control measures for their
protection, and where a permit system
for individual use would achieve
management objectives. All of the
LTVAs have been designated as special
areas in compliance with the BLM’s
land use planning process, outlined in
43 CFR part 1600 et seq. The
designation of LTVAs ensures that
suitable locations are available for longterm use year after year and that areas
with sensitive natural and cultural
resources are not used for extended
periods of time. The requirements for
special areas can be found in 43 CFR
part 2932 et seq.
The BLM manages seven LTVAs. The
Yuma Field Office manages the La Posa
and Imperial Dam LTVAs; the El Centro
Field Office manages the Tamarisk, Pilot
Knob, and Hot Spring LTVAs; and the
Palm Springs/South Coast Field Office
manages the Mule Mountain and
Midland LTVAs. The LTVAs are located
in La Paz County, Arizona, and Imperial
and Riverside Counties, California.
II. Discussion of Special Recreation
Permit Fees
Visitors must purchase a long-term or
short-visit SRP for recreational use of
the LTVAs. An SRP for use of the
LTVAs is valid at all seven LTVAs for
the duration of the permit’s validity.
Except for areas closed to camping and
other designated recreation fee sites,
visitors may stay free of charge on
public lands outside of LTVAs for up to
14 days in any 28-day period.
The BLM has periodically adjusted
SRP fees for use of the LTVAs since the
LTVA program began to cover rising
labor, administrative, and supply costs.
The LTVA SRP fees were last adjusted
in 2003. The following LTVA fee
adjustments will be implemented on
September 25, 2007: Increase the longterm (7-month) permit fee from $140 to
$180, and increase the short-visit (14day) permit fee from $30 to $40.

the purchase of a SRP for recreational
