Proposals; and, Reports by the

comment period will be provided at 

11:30 a.m. on March 8, 2007, for any 

interested publics who wish to address 

the Council on BLM programs and 

business. Under the Federal Recreation 

Enhancement Act, the BLM Arizona 

RAC has been designated the Recreation 

Resource Advisory Council (RRAC), and 

has the authority to review all BLM and 

Forest Service (FS) recreation fee 

proposals in Arizona. The afternoon 

meeting agenda on March 8 will be 

devoted to presenting the Recreation 

Enhancement Act (REA) Working Group 

Report, and reviewing one FS, and three 

BLM fee proposals in Arizona: 

(1) Sycamore Cabin (Prescott National 

Forest) Less than a 20-minute drive from 

Phoenix, Flagstaff and Prescott, this 

historic Prescott National Ranger house 

is currently available for nightly rental. 

The fee proposal will consider an 

increase from $100 to $125 per night 

(excluding $9 reservation fee). An 

additional $25 per night will be charged 

if a Recreational Vehicle is brought to 

the site. 

(2) Coyote Buttes Special Management 

Area (BLM Arizona Strip District) Just 

south of the Utah-Arizona border, with 

access located midway between Page, 

Arizona and Kanab, Utah on U.S. 

Highway 89. Visitors may hike in scenic 

Coyote Buttes by obtaining an online 

permit on a first-come, first-served 

basis. The existing permit fee is $5 per 

person, per day. The fee proposal will 

consider the inclusion of an online 

lottery for hiking permits and a $5 per 

application lottery fee. 

(3) Amenity Fee Site Proposals, 

Annual Recreation Pass, and Long-Term 

Visitor Areas (BLM Yuma Field Office). 

Changes to the recreation fee schedules 

are proposed, including an increase 

from $140 to $180 for a 7-month permit, 

and from $30 to $40 for a 14-day permit 

at the Field Office’s two Long-Term 

Visitor Areas. In addition, BLM also 

maintains seven other developed 

recreation fee sites, six of which are 

located on the lower Colorado River. 

The annual pass honored at all seven of 

these recreation sites is proposed to 

increase from $50 to $75. At the six 

Colorado River recreation sites, BLM is 

proposing to establish a $10 day-use fee 

and a $15 overnight fee. At the seventh 

site, the Ehrenberg Sandbowl OffHighway Vehicle Area, BLM is 

proposing to establish a $5 day-use fee 

and a $10 overnight fee. 

(4) Amenity Fee Site Proposals and 

Annual Recreation Pass (BLM Lake 

Havasu Field Office). The Annual 

Recreation Pass fee is proposed to 

increase from $50 to $100 per year, the 

first increase since the program began in 

2002. The Annual Pass is used in lieu 

of paying daily permit fees (typically $4 

to $20 each) for an unlimited number of 

overnight and day-use visits at Lake 

Havasu shoreline campsites and Parker 

Strip recreation sites. An increase in 

Daily Permit Fees is also proposed for 

the Parker Strip, from $3 to $4 to $5 for 

day use, and from $4 to $10 to $5 to $10 

for overnight. In addition, fees proposed 

for the Empire Landing Campground 

(upon its reopening in 2008) would be 

$25 to $30 per day. 

Following the FS and BLM proposals, 

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.
