Notice of Closure of Public Lands to Camping

SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that the following described lands are 
temporarily closed to camping for the protection of public health and 
safety under the provisions of 43 CFR 8364.1. The closure will remain 
in effect until rescinded or modified by the Pocatello Field Manager. 
The legal description of the closure area is:

Boise Meridian, Idaho

T. 13 S., R. 40 E., Idaho Section 24: NW\1/4\.

EFFECTIVE DATE: This order is effective January 1, 2000.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Public Lands involved (approximately 40 
acres) are immediately adjacent to the Maple Grove Campground, 
Demonstration Fee Site. Unregulated and extended overnight camping in 
this area results in health and safety problems, and is not consistent 
with the orderly use and management of the Maple Grove Fee Site. This 
camping restriction will reduce overcrowding at the Fee Site and serve 
to protect persons, property, and public land resources.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jeff S. Steele, Field Manager, 
Pocatello Field Office, 1111 N. 8th Ave., Pocatello, ID 83201, 208-478-
6340.

    Dated: November 29, 1999.
Jeff S. Steele,
Field Manager.
