Notice of New Fee Site
Kaibab National Forest, USDA
Forest Service, Arizona.
ACTION: Notice of New Fee Sites.
mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: The Kaibab National Forest is
proposing to charge fees for the
overnight rental of three historic
facilities on the North Kaibab Ranger
District. Jumpup cabin is the oldest
Ranger Station on the North Kaibab
Ranger District. The cabin was recently
rehabilitated with American Recovery
and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) and
Forest Service funds and is a popular
overnight stop for hikers in the Kanab
Creek Wilderness Area. The new fee is
proposed at $60.00 per night for Jumpup
Cabin with a maximum capacity of eight
people. Pleasant Valley Cabin is located
on Highway 67, a few miles north of the
Grand Canyon National Park. The cabin
will require substantial rehabilitation
work over the next two years to prepare

it for public use. The new fee is
proposed at $140.00 per night for
Pleasant Valley Cabin with a maximum
capacity of four people. Big Springs
Administrative Center is on the National
Register of Historic Places and has been
used by homesteaders, and later the
Forest Service, since the 1800’s. The
complex consists of a historic office,
dining hall, shower house, group
kitchen, seven residential units, and
several administrative structures. The
residential units were recently restored
using ARRA funds. While Big Springs
serves as an active administrative site
for the U.S. Forest Service, rental cabins
available to the public are in a discrete
location separated from administrative
structures. The proposed fee is $65.00
per night for an individual cabin at Big
Springs. Individual cabins vary in
occupancy from two to four people per
cabin and includes use of the shower
house, kitchen and dining hall.
Other cabin rentals within the
Arizona National Forests have shown
that the public appreciates and enjoys
the availability of historic rental
facilities. Funds from the rentals will be
used for the continued operation and
maintenance of these facilities and other
properties in the Arizona ‘‘Rooms with
a View’’ Cabin Rental Program.
DATES: Send any comments about these
fee proposals by June 1, 2013 so
comments can be compiled, analyzed
and shared with the BLM Arizona
Resource Advisory Council (RAC).
Jumpup Cabin will become available for
rent in fall of 2013, Big Springs
Administrative Center will become
available for rent in spring of 2014, and
Pleasant Valley Cabin will be available
for rent in spring of 2015.

information collection.
OMB No.: 0575–0187.
Abstract: USDA, Rural Development
provides insured loans to low- and
moderate-income applicants located in
rural geographic areas to assist them in
obtaining decent, sanitary and safe
dwellings. Rural Development currently
processes loan originations through
approximately 542 Field Offices. The
Rural Development, Centralized
Servicing Center (CSC), located in St.
Louis, Missouri, provides support to the
Field Offices and is responsible for loan
servicing functions for Single Family
Housing direct loan program borrowers.
The CSC was established to achieve a
high level of customer service and
operating efficiency. The CSC has
established a fully integrated call center
and is able to provide borrowers with
convenient access to their loan account
information.
To facilitate CSC’s mission and in an
effort to continuously improve service
delivery, a survey has been developed
that will measure the change in quality
of service that borrower’s receive when
they contact the CSC. Four previous
surveys have been completed under
prior authorization. Respondents will
only need to report information on a
one-time basis.
The results of the survey will provide
a general satisfaction level among
borrowers throughout the nation. The
data analysis will provide comparisons
to prior surveys and reveal areas of
increased satisfaction as well as areas in
need of improvement. CSC’s goal is to
continuously improve program delivery,
accessibility and overall customer
service satisfaction. A follow up survey
will be conducted in 24–36 months, but
may or may not be sent to the same
initial respondents. Additionally, in
accordance with Government
Performance and Results Act (GPRA),
the survey will enable CSC to measure
the results and overall effectiveness of
customer services provided as well as
implement action plans and measure
improvements.

is estimated to average 10 minutes per
response.
