Subsection
(h)of section 803 of the Federal Lands Recreation Enhancement Act ( 16 U.S.C. 6802 ) is amended to read as follows: The Secretary may— issue a special recreation permit for Federal recreational lands and waters; and charge a special recreation permit fee in connection with the issuance of the permit. The Secretary may issue special recreation permits in the following circumstances: For specialized individual and group use of Federal facilities and Federal recreational lands and waters, such as, but not limited to, use of special areas or areas where use is allocated, motorized recreational vehicle use, and group activities or events. To recreation service providers who conduct outfitting, guiding, and other recreation services on Federal recreational lands and waters managed by the Forest Service, Bureau of Land Management, Bureau of Reclamation, or the United States Fish and Wildlife Service. To recreation service providers who conduct recreation or competitive events, which may involve incidental sales on Federal recreational lands and waters managed by the Forest Service, Bureau of Land Management, Bureau of Reclamation, or the United States Fish and Wildlife Service. The issuance of a new special recreation permit for activities under paragraph
(2)shall be categorically excluded from further analysis and documentation under the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 ( 42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.), if the proposed use is the same as or similar to a previously authorized use and the Secretary determines that such issuance does not have significant environmental effects based upon application of the extraordinary circumstances procedures established by the Secretary under the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 ( 42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.). For the purposes of this paragraph, the term similar means— substantially similar in type, nature, and scope; and will not result in significant new impacts. An entity that pays a special recreation permit fee shall not be subject to a road cost-sharing fee or a fee for the use of highways or roads that are open to private, noncommercial use within the boundaries of any Federal recreational lands or waters, as authorized under section 6 of Public Law 88–657 ( 16 U.S.C. 537 ). .
