Recreation Enhancement Act (Title VIII, 

Pub. L. 108–447) 

AGENCY: Chattahoochee-Oconee 

National Forests, USDA Forest Service. 

ACTION: Notice of New Fee Site. 

SUMMARY: The Chattahoochee-Oconee 

National Forests is planning to charge a 

$5 per site per night fee for overnight 

camping at Hickey Gap Campground. 

The fees listed are only proposed and 

will be determined upon further 

analysis and public comment. This 

campground has five campsites and has 

been available for camping use prior to 

this date. Campgrounds on the 

Chattahoochee-Oconee National Forests 

have shown that people appreciate and 

enjoy the availability of outdoor 

camping facilities. Funds from the 

campground will be used for the 

continued operation and maintenance of 

Hickey Gap Campground. 

DATES: Hickey Gap Campground will 

start charging fees in March, 2009.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Karen McKenzie, Public Affairs Officer, 

770–297–3061. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Federal Recreation Lands Enhancement 

Act (Title VII, Pub. L. 108–447) directed 

the Secretary of Agriculture to publish 

a six month advance notice in the 

Federal Register whenever new 

recreation fee areas are established. This 

new fee will be reviewed by a 

Recreation Resource Advisory 

Committee prior to a final decision and 

implementation. 

The Chattahoochee-Oconee National 

Forests currently has thirty-five other 

campgrounds. These campgrounds have 

a total of 675 campsites; 23 

campgrounds are operated by 

concessionaires. A business analysis of 

Hickey Gap Campground has shown 

that people desire having this sort of 

recreation experience on the 

Chattahoochee-Oconee National Forests. 

A market analysis indicates that the $5 

per site per night fee is both reasonable 

and acceptable for this sort of unique 

recreation experience.
