 Department of Agriculture Agricultural Research Service 7 CFR Part 500
 AGENCY: Agricultural Research Service; Research, Education, and Economics; USDA.
 ACTION: Proposed rule.

 DATES: Comments must be submitted on or before February 18, 2005.
 ADDRESSES: Address all correspondence to Thomas S. Elias, Director, U.S. National Arboretum, Beltsville Area, Agricultural Research Service, 3501 New York Avenue, NE., Washington, DC 20002.
 FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Dana Laster, Administrative and Marketing Manager, U.S. National Arboretum, Beltsville Area, ARS, 3501 New York Avenue, NE., Washington, DC 20002; (202) 245-4539.


SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:  Classification This rule change has been reviewed under Executive Order 12866, and it has been determined that it is not a “significant regulatory action” rule because it will not have an annual effect on the economy of $100 million or more or adversely and materially affect a sector of the economy, productivity, competition, jobs, the environment, public health or safety, or State, local, or Tribal governments or communities. This rule change will not create any serious inconsistencies or otherwise interfere with actions taken or planned by another agency. It will not materially alter the budgetary impact of entitlements, grants, user fees, or loan programs, or the rights and obligations of recipients thereof, and does not raise novel legal or policy issues arising out of legal mandates, the President's priorities, or principles set forth in Executive Order 12866. Regulatory Flexibility Act The Department of Agriculture certifies that this rule change will not have a significant impact on a substantial number of small entities as defined in the Regulatory Flexibility Act, Pub. L. No. 96-354, as amended (5 U.S.C. 601, 
                    *et seq.*). Paperwork Reduction Act In accordance with the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) regulations (5 CFR part 1320) which implement the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, Pub. L. 104-13, as amended (44 U.S.C. chapter 35), the information collection and recordkeeping requirements that have been imposed in the management of these programs have been approved by OMB and assigned OMB control number 0518-0024 for the use of facilities or the performance of photography/cinematography at the USNA. Background Section 890(b) of the Federal Agriculture Improvement and Reform Act of 1996, Pub. L. 104-127 (1996 Act) expanded the authorities of the Secretary of Agriculture to charge reasonable fees for the use of USNA facilities and grounds. These authorities included the ability to charge fees for temporary use by individuals or groups of USNA facilities and grounds consistent with the mission of the USNA. In addition, authority was granted to charge fees for the use of the USNA for commercial photography and cinematography. Pursuant to the Act, the Agricultural Research Service (ARS) promulgated a fee schedule for the USNA at 7 CFR part 500, subpart B. All rules and regulations noted in 7 CFR part 500, subpart A, Conduct on the U.S. National Arboretum Property, also apply to individuals or groups granted approval to use the facilities and grounds. This proposed rule change modifies 7 CFR part 500, subparts A and B. The USNA will continue to charge fees for riding its tram service, for use of the grounds and facilities, and for photography and cinematography. The USNA will allow use of its facilities and grounds for activities such as luncheons, dinners, receptions, and similar events in order to provide financial support to the USNA. The Director of the USNA will continue to have discretion to waive fees for non-profit scientific or educational organizations the purposes and interests of which are complementary to the mission of the USNA, such as the Friends of the National Arboretum, the National Bonsai Foundation, and the National Capital Area Federation of Garden Clubs. Even in cases of fee waiver, however, the USNA will seek to recover costs incurred in connection with use of its facilities. Fees generated will be used to defray USNA expenses 
                    ( print page 75881)
                    or to promote the mission of the USNA. The public will not be charged an admission fee for visiting the USNA. Revision of Subpart A Subpart A is proposed to be revised in its entirety although, except for stylistic and editorial changes, no substantive changes are made to sections 500.1, 500.2, 500.4, 500.6, 500.9, and 500.14. Substantive changes to the other sections are as follows: Section 500.3 Preservation of Property This section is modified to include a prohibition on open fires, environmental spraying for insect pests, or release of biological agents on the facilities of the USNA. The purpose of this change is to protect the valuable existing plant collections, research projects, and the USNA's ongoing Integrated Pest Management Program. Section 500.5 Nuisances This section is amended to limit the decibel level of music at special events. Section 500.7 Intoxicating Beverages and Narcotics This section is modified to provide for limited beer and wine service with an approved permit and only at officially approved events when the USNA is closed to the public. It further clarifies that the sale of alcoholic beverages is prohibited. Section 500.8 Soliciting, Vending, Debt Collection, and Distribution of Handbills This section is modified to better identify the type of activities that are not allowed, and to identify more clearly the exceptions to the prohibitions that were not included in the earlier version of this rule. Section 500.10 Pets This section is modified to clarify pet leash requirements and to prohibit the release of fish, plants, and animals on the grounds of the USNA. Section 500.11 Vehicular and Pedestrian Traffic This section is modified to provide for access set up and break down, temporary structures, supplies, and materials used in special events and ceremonies, and to serve notice that illegal parking may result in towing in addition to fine. Section 500.12 Weapons, Explosives and Open Fires This section is changed to include a prohibition against the use pyrotechnic devices of any kind. Section 500.13 Nondiscrimination This section is modified to conform to the nondiscrimination policy established by the United States Department of Agriculture as set forth in 7 CFR part 15d. Section 500.15 Penalties and Other Law This section is modified and updated due to the recodification of title 40 and the creation of the Department of Homeland Security. Amendments to Subpart B The fee schedule and associated provisions in subpart B are generally revised as follows: Fee Schedule for Tram and Tours The USNA operates a 48-passenger tram (which accommodates 2 wheelchairs) to provide mobile tours throughout the USNA grounds on weekends and holidays. The USNA will continue to charge a fee to all riders as well as the amount to be charged for pre-scheduled group tram tours. Additionally, a fee will be charged for providing tour guides for pre-scheduled non-tram tours. Fee amounts were determined after a survey of similar services provided by other Arboreta and Botanical Gardens and an analysis of costs associated with the program. Fees generated will be used to offset costs or for the purposes of promoting the mission of the USNA. Payment for use of the tram is due at the time of ticket purchase. Payment for pre-scheduled tram tours must be made at least two weeks in advance. Payment for pre-scheduled, non-tram guided tours must be made at least two weeks in advance of the tour date. Fee Schedule for Use of Facilities and Grounds The USNA will charge fees for the use of the facilities and grounds for activities that may include receptions, luncheons, dinners, and similar events. The proposed fee schedule is consistent with rates from comparable institutions in the Washington, DC area based upon a survey by USNA of the fees charged by such institutions. Conditions Governing the Use of Facilities and Grounds Organizations and others may reserve space with USNA for events and other uses of the USNA. Space also may be reserved through USNA support organizations such as the Friends of the National Arboretum, National Bonsai Foundation, and the National Capital Area Federation of Garden Clubs. Reservation requests need to be made as far in advance as possible, with a minimum of 30 days required for all reservations. The USNA will respond to such requests within 10 working days with information as to whether the requested site is available for use. The USNA will also give notice to prospective users of any planned activities (construction, maintenance, pesticide applications, and any similar activities) that might affect the planned use or event. The USNA will not assume any responsibility for last minute changes due to failure of mechanical systems, severe storms and other weather events, or emergencies relating to security and safety. A facilities use permit for a specific time and location must be signed and a 50% non-refundable deposit paid at the time of booking. The remaining 50% is due five working days before the event. In the event of building, property or grounds damage or excessive cleaning requirements, additional charges will be billed, and will be due within 30 days of billing. All users of the USNA shall comply with all Federal and local laws. The USNA is a Federal property under the jurisdiction of United States Department of Agriculture. All activities are subject to Federal rules and regulations governing the buildings and grounds. No offices, rooms, and hallways beyond the secure doors adjacent to the lobby area of the USNA's Administration Building will be available for use. Fee Schedule for Use of Facilities and Grounds for Purposes of Photography or Cinematography The USNA will continue to charge a fee for the use of the facility or grounds for purposes of commercial photography or cinematography. The fees have been established based on comparable opportunities provided by other Arboreta and Botanical Gardens across the nation. Facilities and Grounds are available for use for commercial photography or cinematography at the discretion of the USNA Director. Requests for use should be made at least two weeks in advance of required date. The USNA does not intend to charge fees to the press for photography or cinematography related to stories concerning the USNA and its mission or for other noncommercial, First Amendment activities. Fee payments for use of facilities or grounds or for photography and cinematography must be made in advance of requested date. Payment Submission Requirements Unless provided otherwise, all payments due under this subpart must 
                    ( print page 75882)
                    be made by cash, check, or money order (in U.S. funds). Checks and money orders must be made payable, in U.S. funds, to the U.S. National Arboretum. The USNA will provide receipts to requesters for their records or billing purposes. The USNA is pursuing opportunities to enter an agreement to allow USNA visitors and users to make payment in the form of a credit card. If USNA enters into such an agreement, USNA visitors and users who are assessed user fees may pay those fees with a credit card subject to the terms and conditions of such agreement.
