Act (Title VIII, Pub. L. 108-447); Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest

AGENCY: Forest Service, USDA.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest is proposing to begin 
charging a $5.00 daily user fee or accept the $20 annual user vehicle 
sticker at the Wanoka Trailhead based upon other Forest Service 
multiple use trailhead facilities across the Forest. The Wanoka 
Trailhead on the Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest will provide a 
much needed trailhead facility for the public to utilize to enjoy the 
motorized and non-motorized trails and routes north and south of US 
Highway 2. This site will also assist in helping to increase the amount 
of visitation to the local communities of Ashland, Drummond, Barnes, 
Cable, Delta, and Iron River. The funds collected at the Wanoka 
Trailhead will be used for the year round operation and maintenance of 
this site.

DATES: The Wanoka Trailhead was posted for a one year comment period 
pertaining to the implementation of use fees on March 18, 2009. All 
comments must be received no later than July 15, 2010 so they can be 
compiled, analyzed and shared with the Region 9 Recreation Resource 
Advisory Committee.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Federal Recreation Lands Enhancement Act

complete, these new fees will be reviewed by a Recreation Resource 
Advisory Committee prior to a final decision and implementation.
