Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 91 / Thursday, May 9, 2024 / Notices
Similar to BIA’s surface leasing
regulations, Tribal regulations under the
HEARTH Act pervasively cover all
aspects of leasing. See 25 U.S.C.
415(h)(3)(B)(i) (requiring Tribal
regulations be consistent with BIA
surface leasing regulations).
Furthermore, the Federal government
remains involved in the Tribal land
leasing process by approving the Tribal
leasing regulations in the first instance
and providing technical assistance,
upon request by a Tribe, for the
development of an environmental
review process. The Secretary also
retains authority to take any necessary
actions to remedy violations of a lease
or of the Tribal regulations, including
terminating the lease or rescinding
approval of the Tribal regulations and
reassuming lease approval
responsibilities. Moreover, the Secretary
continues to review, approve, and
monitor individual Indian land leases
and other types of leases not covered
under the Tribal regulations according
to 25 CFR part 162.
Accordingly, the Federal and Tribal
interests weigh heavily in favor of
preemption of State and local taxes on
lease-related activities and interests,
regardless of whether the lease is
governed by Tribal leasing regulations
or 25 CFR part 162. Improvements,
activities, and leasehold or possessory
interests may be subject to taxation by
the Confederated Tribes of the Warm
Springs Reservation of Oregon.

Assistant Secretary—Indian Affairs.

hard of hearing, or have a speech
disability may dial 711 (TTY, TDD, or
TeleBraille) to access
telecommunications relay services.
Individuals outside the United States
should use the relay services offered
within their country to make
international calls to contact Mr.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Fees help
ensure that those who recreate on public
lands make a greater, but reasonable,
contribution toward protecting and
enhancing those opportunities than
those who do not utilize recreation
opportunities. Information about the use
of the fee revenues will be posted at one
or more kiosks within the fee areas
annually.
King Range NCA
The BLM will implement a fee of $12
per person per overnight trip (maximum
stay per trip is 14 days) in the King
Range Wilderness. There will be no fee
for children 16 and under and no fee for
day use.
The King Range NCA encompasses
68,000 acres of public lands along 35
miles of coastline, draws people from all
over the world to visit the ‘‘Lost Coast’’
of California, and offers one of the only
coastal backpacking opportunities in the
contiguous United States. Providing
safety and trip planning support for
visitors is important due to the unique
safety issues associated with a coastal
wilderness environment, including the
influence of tides, waves, and storms.
The King Range NCA is managed as
a ‘‘Special Area’’ and is a component of
the BLM’s National Landscape
Conservation System. Special Areas are
defined as areas officially designated by
statute, Presidential decree, or
Secretarial order and include
components of the National Wilderness

Preservation System. The 2005 King
Range NCA Resource Management Plan
directed the BLM to establish visitor
carrying capacities, a permit system,
and a fee schedule for overnight
backcountry use. Since 2017, overnight
visitation in the King Range Wilderness
has been managed with a free ISRP
issued through www.recreation.gov.
In accordance with the BLM
recreation fee program policy, the King
Range NCA developed a business plan
in 2023 to establish future management
goals and priorities to determine how
the BLM intends to use fees to improve
and maintain visitor services. As
discussed in the business plan, the ISRP
fee for overnight visitation in the King
Range Wilderness is consistent with
other established fee sites for similar
areas. The BLM has notified and
involved the public throughout this
process and released the draft business
plan for a public comment period from
April 21 to May 22, 2023. The BLM
presented the proposed project and the
results of the public comment period to
the Northern California Resource
Advisory Council (RAC) on October 26,
2023. The RAC supported the fees as
provided in the business plan.
Redding Field Office
The BLM will implement a new $15
fee for overnight camping at Steiner Flat
Campground, located near Douglas City,
California, along the Trinity River. The
campground will be upgraded to
include the following amenities: toilets,
trash service, increased park ranger and
law enforcement presence, and
campsites with campfire rings, tables,
bear-proof food storage boxes, and tent
pads. The upgraded amenities will help
reduce environmental impacts and
improve the experience for those using
the site. Fees will begin when all the
amenities are available in the
campground or 6 months after this
notice is published, whichever is later.
Ohl Olsen Campground is a group-use
campground near Shasta Lake City,
California, in the Chappie-Shasta OffHighway-Vehicle Area. The BLM will
implement a new fee of $60 per night
for the lower site (maximum of 30
people) and $80 per night for the upper
site (maximum of 50 people).
In accordance with the BLM
recreation fee program policy, the
Redding Field Office finalized a
business plan in 2023 to establish future
management goals and priorities for the
recreation fee program. As discussed in
the business plan, the overnight
camping fees for Steiner Flat
Campground and Ohl Olsen
Campground are consistent with other
established fee sites for similar areas

I. Background
BLM maintains the INTERIOR/BLM–
16, Timber Sale Information System
(TSIS), system of records to support the
management and tracking of forest
resources, including timber sale,
accounting, management, and activity
tracking; stewardship contract
management and activity; and special
consolidated reporting. Each of these
modules provide direct support to the
BLM mission goals related to managing
the use of forest and woodland products
in the Public Domain (PD) and in the
Oregon and California Grant Lands
(O&C).
DOI is publishing this revised notice
to change the system name from
INTERIOR/BLM–16, Timber Sale
Information System (TSIS), to
INTERIOR/BLM–16, Forest Resources
Information System (FRIS), to provide
organizational clarification for the
overall forest resources program. DOI is
also adding a new purpose section to
describe the primary purpose of FRIS;
updating the system location to reflect
a move to a DOI data center and the
cloud environment; updating the system
manager section, authorities for
maintenance of the system, and the
records source categories section to
provide additional clarification on
individual sources of information;
updating the policies and practices for
retention of records section to clarify the
records retention schedule; updating
safeguards to protect records; and
providing an updated description on the
retrieval of records. DOI is further
expanding the categories of individuals
to provide clarification on the
individuals covered by the system and
the categories of records to reflect
PO 00000
Frm 00059

additional types of records that are
maintained in the system; and updating
the records access, contesting record,
and notification procedures to provide
guidance on how individuals may
submit requests under the Privacy Act.
This notice also reorganizes the sections
and updates section titles in accordance
with OMB Circular A–108, Federal
Agency Responsibilities for Review,
Reporting, and Publication under the
Privacy Act.
The existing routine uses are being
updated from a numeric to alphabetic
list and are being modified to provide
clarity and transparency and reflect
updates consistent with standard DOI
routine uses. Additionally, DOI is
proposing new routine uses to facilitate
sharing of information with agencies
and organizations to promote the
integrity of the records in the system or
carry out a statutory responsibility of
the DOI or Federal government.
Routine use A was slightly modified
to further clarify disclosures to the
Department of Justice (DOJ) or other
Federal agencies, when necessary, in
relation to litigation or judicial hearings.
Routine use B was modified to clarify
disclosures to a congressional office to
respond to or resolve an individual’s
request made to that office. Routine use
H was slightly modified to include
sharing of information with territorial
government agencies in response to
court orders or for discovery purposes
related to litigation. Routine use I was
modified to include grantees and shared
service providers to facilitate sharing of
information when authorized and
necessary to perform services on DOI’s
behalf. Modified routine use J allows
DOI and BLM to share information with
appropriate Federal agencies or entities
when reasonably necessary to respond
to a breach of PII and to prevent,
minimize, or remedy the risk of harm to
individuals or the Federal government
in accordance with OMB Memorandum
M–17–12, Preparing for and Responding
to a Breach of Personally Identifiable
Information. Routine use N was
modified to clarify sharing with the
news media and the public where there
is a legitimate public interest or in
support of a legitimate law enforcement
or public safety function.
Proposed routine use C facilitates
sharing of information with the
Executive Office of the President to
resolve issues concerning individuals’
records. BLM is removing the former
routine use 13 for disclosure to
consumer reporting agencies and has
included that notice at the end of this
section.
Pursuant to the Privacy Act, 5 U.S.C.
