Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 229 / Thursday, November 30, 2017 / Notices
This special area qualifies as a site
wherein visitors can be charged a fee in
conjunction with a Recreation Use
Permit (RUP or Permit), authorized
under Section 803(h) of the FLREA, 16
U.S.C. 6802(h). In accordance with the
FLREA and implementing regulations at
43 CFR 2930, visitors will obtain an
RUP upon arrival at the site.
Permits/day-use passes will be
available at a cost of $6 per vehicle and
will be valid from dawn to dusk. The
day-use pass will be available for
purchase during the summer season
(May 15 to September 30). As a standard
amenity site within the National System
of Public Lands, the fee will be waived
on dates specified as fee-free days by the
BLM. All applicable Federal
Recreational Lands Passes will be
accepted. All fees collected will be used
to enhance visitor experiences, address
environmental impacts and manage
conflicting uses at Guffey Gorge DayUse Area.
The BLM has notified and involved
the public at each stage of the planning
process, including the proposal to
collect fees. The BLM posted the Guffey
Gorge Business Plan in May 2016,
which outlined operational goals of the
area and the purpose of the fee program.
The Rocky Mountain (formerly Front
Range) RAC considered the proposal at
its August 19, 2016, meeting and
recommended approval. Future
adjustments in the fee amount will be
made in accordance with the Business
Plan and through consultation with the
RAC and the public prior to a fee
increase. FLREA fee revenue and how
the revenue is spent will be posted
annually on-site and online at: https://
go.usa.gov/xnKWH. Copies of the
Business Plan will be available at the
Royal Gorge Field Office and online.
Comments, including names, street
addresses, and other contact
information of commenters, will be
available for public review at the BLM
Royal Gorge Field Office (see ADDRESSES
above). Before including your address,
phone number, email address, or other
personal identifying information in your
comment, you should be aware that
your entire comment—including your
personal identifying information—may
be made publicly available at any time.
While you can ask us in your comment
to withhold your personal identifying
information from public review, we
cannot guarantee that we will be able to
do so.
