for the Judicial Department to establish a process to collect the bail fee as a surcharge for those defendants who 
cannot pay the bail commissioner fee at the time bail is set. The bill does not specify the amount of the surcharge or 
what it is applied to. Establishing a fund to pay the bail commissioner fee for indigent defendants will increase costs

Be it enacted by the People of the State of Maine as follows: 
Sec. 1.  12 MRSA §1882-A is enacted to read: 
§1882-A.  Number in user group 
Beginning with the 2014 camping season, a group of more than 24 persons of any 
age, including trip leaders and guides, may not travel on the watercourse or camp at 
waterway campsites.  A group that exceeds this limit and intends to use the watercourse 
or campsites must separate into self-contained groups of 24 or fewer persons, and these 
groups must travel out of sight of each other or at least one-half mile apart and may not 
share equipment or campsites.  The division may allow a group of more than 24 persons 
if the division determines that the activities of the group will not be detrimental to the use 
and operation of the watercourse and campsites. 
SUMMARY 
Current rules of the Department of Agriculture, Conservation and Forestry, Division 
of Parks and Public Lands limit to 12 the number of members in a group that may travel 
on the Allagash watercourse or camp at Allagash Wilderness Waterway campsites.  This 
bill increases the permissible size of a group to 24, beginning with the 2014 camping 
season.  It also requires larger groups to separate into self-contained groups of 24 or 
fewer.  The bill also gives the division the authority to permit groups composed of more 
than 24 persons.
