This permanent regulation establishes camping fees.  The proposed amendments to the regulation would increase long term camping user fees.

The economic effect on long term state park campers in the form of a user fee would be an increase of $100 per month per campsite for most state parks and $150 per month per campsite in 5 state parks.  The proposed increase would generate approximately $104,800 annually, all of which would accrue to the park fee fund.  Otherwise,no other economic impact to the department, other state agencies, small businesses, or individual members of the public is anticipated.

This permanent regulation establishes the trail access pass fee requirement.  The regulation is being proposed for repeal.
