This facility will expand rental opportunities in that it will make a great rental facility for larger groups or family reunions, as it will accommodate 8–10 easily, and more once remodeling plans to add more sleeping space in the basement are completed. Fees would continue to help protect and maintain this structure, as well as to finance the additional sleeping area construction work. The bunkhouse would be available once a final decision is made and they are listed with the National Recreation Reservation Service which is anticipated for June 2009 at the earliest. Fees are also proposed at the Willow Creek campground on the Mountain Home Ranger District. This site has been improved with a new accessible toilet and picnic tables over the last 8 to 10 years and additional income is needed for its continued operation and maintenance. A fee study, financial analysis, and public involvement efforts have been ongoing since spring 2007 in an effort to evaluate and designate new fee sites across the Boise National Forest. Fees at campgrounds are generally $15 at sites that provide both drinking water and trash removal and $12 at sites that do not provide both of these amenities. A $5 day use fee is also proposed at some sites. Fees would begin to be charged for rental of the Dutch Creek bunkhouse and the Willow Creek campground in May 2009.

ADDRESSES: Cecilia R. Seesholtz, Forest Supervisor, Boise National Forest, 1249 South Vinnell Way, Suite 200, Boise, Idaho 83709. AGENCY: The Boise National Forest is planning to charge fees at two recreation sites. Fees are assessed based on the level of amenities and services provided, cost of operation and maintenance, market assessment, and public comment. The fees listed are currently proposed and will be determined upon further analysis and public comment. Funds from fees would be used for the continued operation and maintenance of these recreation sites. The bunkhouse at the Dutch Creek Guard Station will be available for overnight rental. In consideration of the fees for similar Forest Service facilities and other location factors, the tentative cabin rental fee was set at $45 per night.
