Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service Title: Stakeholder/Customer Satisfaction Survey. OMB Control Number: 0579–NEW. Summary of Collection: In 2003, the Plant Health Program (PHP) unit, Plant Protection and Quarantine, Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS), obtained from the International Organization of Standardization (ISO, nongovernmental worldwide network of national standards institutes) certification in the ISO 9001;2008 standard for its permit services. To meet the ISO 9001;2008 standards, an organization must demonstrate its ability to consistently provide a product that meets customer quality requirements and applicable regulatory requirements, while aiming to enhance customer satisfaction through effective application of the system, including processes for continual improvement of its performance. In order to remain in compliance with Clause 8.2.1 (Customer Satisfaction) of the ISO 9001;2008 standard, PHP must measure the performance of its quality management system by monitoring information related to customer perception in relationship to customer requirements. PHP has determined that the best method for obtaining this information is through the use of stakeholder/customer satisfaction surveys. Need and Use of the Information: PHP will collect information from the survey to solicit stakeholder and customer feedback with regards to their satisfaction with the regulatory services of Permit Services, Pest Permit Evaluations, and National Identification Services, which is a compliance requirement of the ISO 9001;2008 standard. Without the information it would seriously affect APHIS’ ability to remain in compliance with the ISO 9001;2008 international standards. Description of Respondents: Business or other for-profit. Number of Respondents: 500. Frequency of Responses: Reporting: On occasion. PO 00000 Frm 00001 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Total Burden Hours: 80.

E9–15245 Filed 6–29–09; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 3410–11–M DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE Forest Service Notice of Proposed New Fee Sites; Federal Lands Recreation Enhancement Act, (Title VIII, Pub. L. 108–447) AGENCY: Umpqua National Forest, USDA Forest Service. ACTION: Notice of Proposed New Fee Sites. SUMMARY: The Umpqua National Forest is proposing to charge fees at six recreation sites that currently do not charge fees: Ash Flat Forest Camp and Three C Rock campgrounds and the South Umpqua Day Use Area on the Tiller Ranger District; Rujada Group Picnic Site and East Brice Creek/ Champion Creek Trailhead on the Cottage Grove Ranger District; and Thielsen View Boat Launch on the Diamond Lake Ranger District. These sites currently meet, or can easily meet, the criteria of an Expanded or Standard Amenity fee. These sites have recently been reconstructed, have added or are scheduled to add amenities to improve services and experiences. 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 only 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. Ash Flat Camp is an existing campground that, with the addition of garbage collection, will have seven of the nine amenities (toilet, tables, access, fire ring, fee collection, tent sites, and reasonable visitor protection) of an PO 00000 Frm 00002 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 31237 Expanded Amenity site. Three C Rock was originally a picnic area, but a recently added five-unit campground adjacent to the picnic area now qualifies the site as an Expanded Amenity Site. Garbage service would also be provided at both sites. A financial analysis determined the use fees for these two sites may range between $6.00 and $14.00 per camp unit per night. An additional $3.00 to $5.00 may be charged for each additional vehicle per night. South Umpqua Day Use Area has all six Standard Amenity improvements including a permanent toilet, garbage receptacle, parking, interpretive signs, picnic tables, and security. Additional facilities include barbeques and an observation deck. A fee vault would be added so recreation users could pay the fee on-site. The fee area would include parking along Road 28 within the designated area. People who park at these turnouts use the Day Use Area and its amenities. Financial analyses based on level of amenities suggest a day use fee of $1.00 to $5.00 per vehicle per day. The site is proposed to become a fee site where the Northwest Forest Pass ($5.00 per day or $30 for an annual pass) or other applicable passes would be accepted. Rujada Picnic Site is currently a free, day-use area with both group and individual picnic sites and a trailhead recreation site that is frequented by single families as well as large groups. The site provides all six of the Standard Amenity improvements including garbage collection, toilets, tables, parking, interpretive sign, and security as well as recent improvements including the installation of a new potable water line and faucets, and a play ground next to a large open area with horseshoes pits. Based on the level of amenities and the type of use occurring at this site, a Group Day Use reservation and fee is being proposed. There are 2 adjacent Group Use Sites, each with a maximum capacity of 20 to 30 people per site, or 40 to 65 for both sites. Each site will be available to reserve through the Recreation.gov reservation system. Rates being proposed are $25 per day for one site or $50 for both sites. These fees would be required only during the managed season of Memorial Day weekend through Labor Day weekend. East Brice Trailhead, also known as Champion Creek Trailhead, is currently not a fee site. It is used for parking and access to the adjacent Noonday OHV trail system and 3 adjacent hiker/ mountain bike trails. The site provides five of the six Standard Amenity improvements including a permanent E:\FR\FM\30JNN1.SGM 30JNN1
