                    Mr. BISHOP of Utah, from the Committee on Natural Resources,

                                          REPORT

                                        [To accompany H.R. 1991]

                            [Including cost estimate of the Congressional Budget Office]
                     The Committee on Natural Resources, to whom was referred the
                   bill (H.R. 1991) to extend the authority of the Secretary of the Inte-
                   rior and the Secretary of Agriculture to carry out the Federal
                   Lands Recreation Enhancement Act, and for other purposes, having
                   considered the same, report favorably thereon without amendment
                   and recommend that the bill do pass.
                                        PURPOSE OF THE BILL
                     The purpose of H.R. 1991 is to extend the authority of the Sec-
                   retary of the Interior and the Secretary of Agriculture to carry out
                   the Federal Lands Recreation Enhancement Act, and for other pur-
                   poses.
                               BACKGROUND AND NEED FOR LEGISLATION
                     The Federal Lands Recreation Act (FLREA), 16 U.S.C. 6809, pro-
                   vides an authority for federal land management agencies to man-
                   age recreation sites with fees received from visitors. Specifically, it
                   allows for the collection of fees for certain types of developed recre-
                   ation sites and requires that the collected funds be used for oper-
                   ation, maintenance and improvement of those sites. The proposed
                   legislation would allow federal agencies to continue to implement
                   FLREA for one additional year while a bill to further extend exist-
                   ing authority or provide for permanent authority can be developed.
