Proposed Directive for Additional 

Seasonal or Year-Round Recreation 

Activities at Ski Areas 

AGENCY: Forest Service, USDA. 

ACTION: Notice of proposed directive; 

request for public comment. 

SUMMARY: The Forest Service is 

proposing to revise its directives for ski 

areas authorized under the National 

Forest Ski Area Permit Act of 1986 (Ski 

Area Permit Act) (16 U.S.C. 497b) to 

provide additional guidance for 

implementing the 2011 amendment to 

this Act, known as the Ski Area 

Recreational Opportunity Enhancement 

Act (SAROEA) (Pub. L. 112–46, 125 

Stat. 538). Current directives limit the 

criteria for determining whether 

additional seasonal and year-round 

recreation activities may be approved at 

ski areas to those listed in SAROEA. 

The proposed directives would add 

criteria to help Authorized Officers 

determine whether proposals for these 

activities are consistent with SAROEA. 

The proposed directive also would 

provide guidance on non-exclusive use 

at ski areas, that is, recreational use at 

ski areas, such as snowshoeing or crosscountry skiing, by the non-paying 

public. Furthermore, the proposed 

directive would clarify policy regarding 

advertising. Timely comments will be 

considered in the development of the 

final directive. 

DATES: Comments must be received in 

writing by December 2, 2013. 

ADDRESSES: Submit comments 

electronically by following the 

instructions at the Federal eRulemaking 

portal at http://www.regulations.gov. 

Comments also may be submitted by 

mail to USDA Forest Service Ski Area 

Comments, Pacific Southwest Regional 

Office, 1323 Club Drive, Vallejo, CA 

94592. If comments are submitted 

electronically, duplicate comments 

should not be sent by mail. Handdelivered comments will not be 

accepted, and receipt of comments 

cannot be confirmed. Please confine 

comments to issues pertinent to the 

proposed directive, explain the reasons 

for any recommended changes, and, 

where possible, reference the specific 

section and wording being addressed. 

All comments, including names and 

addresses when provided, will be 

placed in the record and will be made 

available to the public for review and 

copying. Those wishing to review 

comments should call Sean Wetterberg 

at 707–562–8842 to schedule an 

appointment. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Sean Wetterberg, Acting National 

Winter Sports Program Manager, 707– 

562–8842. Individuals who use 

telecommunication devices for the deaf 

may call the Federal Information Relay

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

1. Background and Need for the 

Proposed Directive 

Most of the 122 ski areas operating on 

National Forest System (NFS) lands in 

the United States are authorized under 

a special use permit issued per the Ski 

Area Permit Act. As originally enacted, 

the Ski Area Permit Act authorized 

Nordic and alpine skiing at ski areas on 

NFS lands. On November 7, 2011,
