Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 91 / Friday, May 11, 2007 / Notices 26777 

2610 using a low-water crossing has 

been dropped from further 

consideration. Instead, the ONF and 

WFLHD proposed to reestablish road 

access previously provided by FSR 2610 

to ONF and Olympic National Park 

(ONP) recreational facilities by rerouting 

the road above its former location along 

the hill-slope above and to the north of 

the washout. Approximately 0.8 mile of 

single-lane road with turnouts would be 

constructed using standard construction 

methods. Furthermore, the ONP and 

WFLHD propose to repair the damage to 

ONP’s Dosewallips Road in the vicinity 

of Dosewallips River Falls, about 0.85 

mile from the ONF/ONP boundary. This 

proposed action also includes a 

proposal to amend the Forest Plan only 

for the proposed repair on FSR 2610. 

Possible Alternatives 

The potential alternatives have 

changed since the last Notice of Intent 

for this proposed action was published. 

In addition to the proposed action, the 

possible alternatives to restore access 

along the damaged section of FSR 2610 

are: No action; reroute to restore access 

to cars, recreational vehicles, and 

trailers upslope of the damage with an 

emphasis to minimize the footprint of 

the road and thereby the resource 

impacts; and a bridge or causeway to 

restore access to cars, recreational 

vehicles and trailers. As in the case of 

the Proposed Action, the reroute 

alternative that would minimize the 

road footprint and impacts also includes 

proposals to amend the Forest Plan for 

the repair needed on FSR 2610. Any 

proposed amendments to the Forest 

Plan will be identified and analyzed in 

the EIS. Under all the action 

alternatives, the ONP proposes to repair 

the Dosewallips Road near the 

Dosewallips Falls. 

Lead and Cooperative Agencies 

The ONF (FS) and WFLHD (FHWA) 

will be co-lead agencies in preparation 

and completion of the EIS. The ONP 

(NPS) will be a cooperating agency in 

the completion of the EIS.

Notice of Proposed New Fee Sites; 

Federal Lands Recreation 

Enhancement Act, (Title VIII, Pub. L. 

108–447) 

AGENCY: Mendocino National Forest, 

USDA Forest Service. 

ACTION: Notice of proposed new fee 

sites. 

SUMMARY: The Mendocino National 

Forest is proposing to charge new fees 

at 14 developed recreation sites. Fees 

are assessed based on the level of 

amenities and services provided, cost of 

operation and maintenance, market 

assessment, and public comment. The 

fees listed are only proposed and will be 

determined upon further analysis and 

public comment. Funds from fees would 

be used for the continued operation and 

maintenance of these recreation sites. 

Pine Mountain Lookout will be 

available for overnight rental. The rental 

fee is recommended at $50 per night. 

Lookout rentals offer a unique 

experience and are a widely popular 

offering on National Forests. Pine 

Mountain was recently restored to 

maintain the lookout’s eligibility to the 

National Register of Historic Places. 

Fees would continue to help protect and 

maintain lookouts and their historic 

integrity. 

The following recreation sites are 

currently fee free but we are 

recommending fees be charged in the 

future: Davis Flat Campground, Dixie 

Glade Campground, Fouts Campground, 

Lake Red Bluff Boat Launch, Little 

Stony Campground, Mill Creek 

Campground, North Forth Campground, 

Sacramento River Boat Launch, South 

Fork Campground, Deer Valley 

Campground, Penny Pines Campground, 

Howard Lake Campground, Howard 

Meadows Campground, and Little Doe 

Campground. Improvements have been 

made at many of these campgrounds 

including installing new fire rings, 

picnic tables and some new toilets. 

Improvements at these campgrounds 

were to address sanitation and safety 

concerns, and improve deteriorating 

resource conditions and recreation 

experiences. A financial analysis is 

being completed to determine fee rates. 

The proposed fees to help maintain 

these sites would range between $5 and 

$8 a campsite. 

DATES: New fees would begin after 

October 1, 2007. The lookout rental will 

be listed with the National Recreation 

Reservation Service.
