The Chippewa National
Forest is seeking public comments on a
proposal that would change recreation
fees to enhance campgrounds. Fee
changes are being proposed at the
Norway Beach Recreation Area,
including an $8 amenity fee for those
campsites with electricity. Fees are
assessed based on the level of amenities
and services provided, cost of
operations and maintenance, and
market assessment. These fees are
proposed and will be determined upon
further analysis and public comment.
Funds from fees would be used for the
continued operation and maintenance
and improvements to the facilities
within the recreation areas. An analysis
of nearby recreation facilities with
similar amenities shows that the
proposed fees are reasonable and typical
of similar sites in the area.
DATES: To ensure consideration of
public comments, comments shall be
submitted on or before September 30,
2019. If approved, new fees would be
implemented in 2020.
