Title: Outfitter and Guide Special Use Authorizations (Forest Service Handbook 2709.11, Chapter 30) 
Abstract: The Forest Service is publishing a proposed agency directive to amend Forest Service Handbook 2709.11, section 37, regarding fees for outfitting and guiding special use authorizations. This action is being taken to improve administrative efficiency for the agency and reduce administrative burden to small business. For example: for minor concession uses, the proposed directive would revise the current fee system from one based on a percentage of gross revenue to a flat rate, thus reducing record keeping and audit requirements. Public comment is invited and will be considered in development of a final directive.
