Act (REA) Working Group Report and two FS recreation fee proposals in 
Arizona.
    The Coronado National Forest will be completing renovation of the 
Kent Springs Cabin located in Madera Canyon, 15 miles southeast of 
Green Valley, Arizona. The FS is proposing to make this property 
available to the public as an overnight rental for $150 per night. The 
Kent Springs Cabin with its six rooms can accommodate up to eight 
people. The house contains two bedrooms, one full bathroom, two living 
rooms, a fully-equipped kitchen and a large outdoor deck.
    The Kaibab National Forest proposes to begin charging a new fee for 
the daily rental of Hull Cabin, located one mile south of the Grand 
Canyon on the Tusayan Ranger District. The new fee will consist of a 
summer rate of $110.00 per day without water/$140.00 per day with 
water, and a winter rate of $75.00 per day without water. Hull Cabin is 
listed on the National Register of Historic Places and is the oldest 
surviving historic cabin near the Grand Canyon's south rim. Initially, 
the cabin will be available for overnight use with a maximum capacity 
of six people. Management of the cabin may expand to include use as a 
group site and/or development of equestrian facilities.
    Following the presentations, the RRAC will open the meeting to 
public comments on the fee proposals. After completing their RRAC 
business, the BLM RAC will reconvene to provide recommendations to the 
RAC Designated Federal Official on the fee proposals and discuss future 
RAC meetings and locations.
