<USER NOTES FOR CLAUSE IV.F>

<Select the following clause IV.F for ski areas in prior appropriation States. Permit administrator must read FSH 2709.11, 52.4 clause D-30 for instructions on how to use this clause.>

F. Water Facilities and Water Rights.

“Used primarily for operation of the ski area” in relation to a water facility or water right means that the water facility or water right provides significantly more water for operation of the permitted portion of the ski area than for any other use.

“Sufficient quantity of water to operate the ski area” means that under typical conditions, taking into account fluctuations in utilization of the authorized improvements, fluctuations in weather and climate, changes in technology, and other factors deemed appropriate by the holder’s qualified hydrologist or licensed engineer, the holder has sufficient water rights or access to a sufficient quantity of water to operate the permitted facilities, and to provide for the associated activities authorized under the ski area permit in accordance with the approved operating plan.

1. Water Facilities.

a. The term “water facility” means a facility located on NFS lands that diverts withdraws, stores, or distributes water, such as a diversion, ditch, pipeline, reservoir, well, tank, impoundment structure, or similar facility or feature.

b. The term “ski area water facility” means any water facility on NFS lands that is authorized by this permit and used primarily for operation of the ski area authorized by this permit (hereinafter “ski area”).

c. The authorized officer may place conditions, as necessary to protect public property, public safety, cultural resources, and natural resources on NFS lands, on the installation, operation, maintenance, and removal of any water facility, but only in accordance with applicable law. This clause D-30 does not expand or contract the agency’s authority to place conditions on the installation, operation, maintenance, and removal of water facilities at issuance or reissuance of the permit, throughout the permit term, or otherwise. The holder must comply with present and future laws, regulations, and other legal requirements in accordance with section I of this permit.

d. Only ski area water facilities may be authorized by this permit.

e. If due to a change (e.g., due to a change in the ownership of the water facility or the associated water rights or a change in the beneficial use, location, or season of use of the water) a ski area water facility will primarily be used for purposes other than operation of the ski area, the authorization for that ski area water facility under this permit shall terminate. Unless the holder has a valid existing right for the water facility to be situated on NFS lands, the holder must obtain a separate special use authorization to operate that water facility or to develop any new water facility on NFS lands that is used primarily for purposes other than operation of the ski area. When such facilities continue to support approved ski area operations at any time of year, the separate special use authorization for these water facilities shall not contain any possessory interest policy based on FSM 2541.32, paragraph 2 (or similar clauses), any waiver provision, or any power of attorney provision. Unless the holder has a valid existing right for the water facility to be situated on NFS lands, if the holder does not obtain a separate special use authorization for these water facilities, the holder shall remove them from NFS lands.

<USER NOTE FOR PARAGRAPH F.1.f>

<Insert paragraph F.1.f in permits issued in California, which has both prior appropriation doctrine and riparian doctrine systems. Otherwise, omit this paragraph.>

c. Original water rights must be established in accordance with applicable state law. The holder, not the United States, shall bear the cost of establishing, acquiring, maintaining, and perfecting original water rights, including any original water rights owned solely or jointly by the United States.

d. Original water rights owned solely by the United States and the United States’ interest in jointly owned original water rights shall remain in federal ownership. Notwithstanding the holder’s obligation to maintain original water rights owned by the United States, the United States reserves the right to take any action necessary to maintain and protect those water rights, including submitting any applications or other filings that may be necessary to protect the water rights.

4. Ensuring Sufficiency of Water Rights and Water for Permitted Ski Area Operations.

a. Where the United States solely or jointly owns water rights used by the holder, the Forest Service shall not divide or transfer ownership of or seek any change in those water rights that would adversely affect their availability for operation of the ski area during the term of this permit, unless required to comply with a statute or an involuntary court order that is binding on the Forest Service.

b. Where the holder solely or jointly owns original water rights, the holder shall not divide or transfer ownership of or seek any change in those water rights that would adversely affect their availability for operation of the ski area during the term of this permit, unless approved in writing in advance by the authorized officer. In deciding whether to grant this approval, the authorized officer shall consider any documentation prepared by the holder’s qualified hydrologist or licensed engineer demonstrating that such action will not result in a lack of a sufficient quantity of water to operate the permitted portion of the ski area.

c. At any time and solely within its discretion, the holder may seek to change, abandon, lease, divide, or transfer ownership of or take other actions with respect to acquired water rights. Following such actions, paragraph F.1.e shall apply to the associated ski area water facilities.

5. Transfer of Certain Water Rights With Sale of the Ski Area Improvements.

a. Upon termination or revocation of this permit, the holder shall offer to sell the holder’s interest in any solely or jointly owned original water rights at market value to the succeeding permit holder. If the succeeding permit holder declines to purchase original water rights owned solely by the holder, the holder may transfer them to a third party. If the succeeding permit holder declines to purchase the holder’s interest in original water rights jointly held with the United States, the holder shall offer to sell that interest at market value to the United States. If the United States declines to purchase that interest, the holder may abandon, divide, lease, or transfer its interest at its sole discretion. This clause imposes no restrictions on acquired water rights. There are no restrictions on the transfer or abandonment of acquired water rights. In all instances, the holder shall retain the full amount of any consideration paid for water rights. Following such actions, paragraph F.1.e shall apply to the associated ski area water facilities.

b. If the Forest Service does not reauthorize the ski area, the holder may submit a proposal to the Forest Service for a permit authorizing a different use for the ski area water facilities. If a different use is not authorized for those water facilities, the holder shall remove them from NFS lands.

F. WATER FACILITIES AND WATER RIGHTS.

1. Water Facilities.

a. The term “water facility” means a facility located on NFS lands that diverts, withdraws, stores, or distributes water, such as a diversion, ditch, pipeline, reservoir, well, tank, impoundment structure, or similar facility or feature.

c. The authorized officer may place any conditions, as necessary to protect public property, public safety, cultural resources, and natural resources on NFS lands, on the installation, operation, maintenance, and removal of any water facility, but only in accordance with applicable law. This clause D-31 does not expand or contract the agency’s authority to place conditions on the installation, operation, maintenance, and removal of water facilities at issuance or reissuance of the permit, throughout the permit term, or otherwise. The holder must comply with present and future laws, regulations and other legal requirements in accordance with section I of this permit.

d. Only ski area water facilities may be authorized by this permit.

e. An inventory of all ski area water facilities is included in Appendix _ of this permit and shall be updated by the holder upon reissuance of this permit, upon installation or removal of a ski area water facility, or when a listed ski area water facility is no longer authorized by this permit.

f. If due to a change (e.g., due to change in ownership of the water facility or the associated water rights or a change in the use, location, or season of use of the water) a ski area water facility will primarily be used for purposes other than operation of the ski area, the authorization for that water facility under this permit shall terminate. Unless the holder has a valid existing right for the water facility to be situated on NFS lands, the holder must obtain a separate special use authorization to operate that water facility or to develop any new water facility on NFS lands that is used primarily for purposes other than operation of the ski area. When such facilities continue to support approved ski area operations at any time of year, the separate special use authorization for these water facilities shall not contain any possessory interest policy based on FSM 2541.32, paragraph 2 (or similar clauses), any waiver provision, or any power of attorney provision. Unless the holder has a valid existing right for the water facility to be situated on NFS lands, if the holder does not obtain a separate special use authorization for these water facilities, the holder shall remove them from NFS lands.

g. Upon termination or revocation of this permit, if the Forest Service does not reauthorize the ski area, the holder may submit a proposal to the Forest Service for a permit authorizing a different use for the ski area water facilities. If a different use is not authorized for those water facilities, the holder shall remove them from NFS lands.

2. Water Rights. This permit does not convey, dispose of, extinguish, or otherwise effect a transfer of any title, rights, or interest of the United States or the holder as a riparian or littoral landowner.

B. SKI AREA PERMIT FEE CALCULATION. The annual ski area permit fee (SAPF) due the United States for the activities authorized by this permit shall be calculated using the following formula:

SAPF = (.015 x AGR in bracket 1) + (.025 x AGR in bracket 2) +

(.0275 x AGR in bracket 3) + (.04 x AGR in bracket 4), where:

SAPF = the ski area permit fee for use of NFS lands;

AGR = adjusted gross revenue;

AGR = [(LT + SS) x (proration %)] + GRAF, prorated as applicable;

LT = revenue from sales of alpine and Nordic lift tickets and passes;

SS = revenue from alpine and Nordic ski school operations;

Proration % = the factor used to prorate LT and SS revenue between NFS lands and private land in the ski area; and

GRAF = gross year-round revenue from ancillary facilities located on NFS lands, prorated as applicable.

1. SAPF Formula. The SAPF shall be calculated by summing the products of the amount of the holder's AGR that falls into each of the four revenue brackets multiplied by the applicable percentage rate, as shown in the table below. AGR shall be determined in accordance with clause VI.B.2. The SAPF shall be calculated based on the holder's fiscal year, unless mutually agreed otherwise by the holder and the authorized officer.

The four revenue brackets shall be adjusted annually using the consumer price index (CPI-U) issued in FSH 2709.11, chapter 30. The revenue brackets shall be indexed for the previous calendar year. The holder's AGR for any fiscal year shall not be split into more than one set of indexed brackets. Only the revenue in each bracket shall be updated annually. The percentage rates shall not change.

The revenue brackets and percentages in FSH 2709.11, 38.12, exhibit 01, shall be used as shown in the preceding formula to calculate the SAPF. The revenue brackets for FY2011 through 2016 are shown below.

*The Washington Office, Director of Recreation, Heritage, and Volunteer Resources, updates the revenue brackets annually, based on the Consumer Price Index (CPI-U), Table A which is published monthly at http://www.bls.gov. The CPI is revised and issued annually in section 97. Currently the table is located at ftp://ftp.bls.gov/pub/special.requests/cpi/cpiai.txt.

The bracket update is accomplished by using the change in the CPI-U for "All Urban Consumers" index for the month of July and is based on the percentage increase or decrease for the preceding calendar year. This index base period is 1982-84=100. For example, the 2011 adjustment uses the change between July 2009 and July 2010, “Not Seasonally Adjusted” values.

2. Calculation of AGR. AGR shall be calculated by summing the year-round revenue from the sale of lift tickets and ski school operations prorated for use of NFS lands and from GRAF, prorated as applicable.

a. The following shall be included in AGR:

(1) Prorated LT. Year-round revenue from sales of alpine and Nordic ski area passes and lift tickets, including revenue generated on private land (such as from lift tickets sold on private land), prorated according to the percentage of use between NFS lands and private land in the ski area per clause VI.B.3.a and VI.B.3.b;

(2) Prorated SS. Revenue from alpine and Nordic ski school operations, including lessons provided to teach alpine or Nordic skiing or other winter sports activities, such as racing, snowboarding, or snowshoeing, even if the lessons are purchased on private land, prorated according to the percentage of use between NFS lands and private land in the ski area per clause VI.B.3.a and VI.B.3.b;

(3) GRAF, Prorated As Applicable. Gross year-round revenue from temporary and permanent ancillary facilities, including all the holder's or subholder's lodging, food service, rental shops, parking, and other ancillary operations, located on NFS lands in the permit area, prorated, as applicable, according to the percentage of use between NFS lands and private land in the ski area per clause VI.B.3.c. Revenue generated from ancillary facilities on private land shall not be included in AGR;

(4) Bartered Goods and Complimentary Lift Tickets. The market price of bartered goods and complimentary lift tickets offered for commercial or other promotional purposes, such as for advertising. The value of bartered goods and complimentary lift tickets offered for commercial or other promotional purposes shall be categorized as LT, SS, or GRAF, as appropriate; and

(5) Special Event Revenue. Revenue from events such as food festivals, foot races, and concerts on NFS lands in the permit area. Special event revenue shall be included in the AGR formula as LT, SS, or GRAF, as applicable. The revenue shall be prorated according to the percentage of use between NFS lands and private land per clause VI.B.3.

Discriminatory pricing, e.g., pricing based solely on race, religion, sex, national origin, or place of residence, is prohibited under clause III.N or III.O, but if it occurs, the amount that would have been received had discriminatory pricing not occurred shall be included in AGR.

3. Proration of Revenue. Alpine and Nordic revenue shall be prorated separately. Prorated revenues shall be added together and summed with GRAF to produce AGR. One or more of the following methods, as appropriate, shall be used to prorate revenue:

a. Alpine revenue shall be prorated using the slope transport feet percentage (STFP), per the direction in FSM 2715.11c, effective in 1992. Only uphill devices (lifts, tows, and tramways) that are fundamental to the winter sports operation (usually those located on both federal and private land) shall be included in the calculation. People movers whose primary purpose is to shuttle people between parking areas or between parking areas and lodges and offices shall not be included.

b. Nordic revenue shall be prorated using the percentage of Nordic trail length on NFS lands to total Nordic trail length.

c. For ancillary facilities that are partially located on NFS lands, the ratio of the facility square footage located on NFS lands to the total facility square footage shall be calculated, and the revenue for ancillary facilities shall be prorated in accordance with this ratio. Special event revenue allocatable to GRAF shall be prorated by the ratio of use on NFS lands to the total use.

4. Absence of AGR. In cases when the holder has no AGR for a given fiscal year, the holder shall pay a land use fee of $2 per acre for NFS lands under permit or a percentage of the appraised value of NFS lands under permit, at the discretion of the authorized officer.

C. SAPF PAYMENTS. Reports and deposits shall be sent or delivered to the collection officer, USDA, Forest Service, at the address furnished by the authorized officer. Checks or money orders shall be made payable to USDA, Forest Service.

1. The holder shall calculate and submit an advance payment which is due by the beginning of the holder's payment cycle. The advance payment shall equal 20 percent of the holder's average SAPF for 3 operating years, when available. When past SAPF information is not available, the advance payment shall equal 20 percent of the SAPF, based on the prior holder's average SAPF or projected AGR. For ski areas not expected to generate AGR for a given payment cycle, advance payment of the SAPF as calculated in clause VI.B.4 shall be made. The advance payment shall be credited toward the total SAPF for the payment cycle.

2. The holder shall report sales, calculate the SAPF due based on a tentative percentage rate, and make interim payments each calendar Shape1 , except for periods in which no sales take place and the holder has notified the authorized officer that the operation has entered a seasonal shutdown for a specific period. Reports and payments shall be made by the end of the month following the end of each reportable period. Interim payments shall be credited toward the total SAPF for the payment cycle.

3. Within 90 days after the close of the ski area's payment cycle, the holder shall provide a financial statement, including a completed SAPF information form, Form FS-2700-19a, representing the ski area's financial condition at the close of its business year and an annual operating statement reporting the results of operations, including a final payment which includes year-end adjustments for the holder and each subholder for the same period. Any balance that exists may be credited and applied against the next payment due or refunded, at the discretion of the holder.

4. Within 30 days of receipt of a statement from the Forest Service, the holder shall make any additional payment required to ensure that the correct SAPF is paid for the past year's operations.

5. All SAPF calculations and records of sales are subject to review or periodic audit as determined by the authorized officer. Errors in calculation or payment shall be corrected as needed for conformance with those reviews or audits. In accordance with clause VI.E, interest and penalties shall be assessed on additional fees due as a result of reviews or audits.

D. CORRECTION OF ERRORS. Correction of errors includes any action necessary to calculate the holder's sales or slope transport feet percentage or to make any other determination required to calculate SAPFs accurately. For SAPF calculation purposes, an error may include:

1. Misreporting or misrepresentation of amounts;

2. Arithmetical mistakes;

3. Typographical mistakes; or

4. Variation from generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), when such variations are inconsistent with the terms of this permit.

Correction of errors shall be made retroactively to the date the error was made or to the previous audit period, whichever is more recent, and past SAPFs shall be adjusted accordingly.

E. FEE PAYMENT ISSUES

1. Crediting of Payments. Payments shall be credited on the date received by the deposit facility, except that if a payment is received on a non-workday, the payment shall not be credited until the next work day.

2. Disputed Fees. Fees are due and payable by the due date. Disputed fees must be paid in full. Adjustments will be made if dictated by settlement terms or an appeal decision.

3. Late Payments

(a) Interest. Pursuant to 31 U.S.C. 3717 et seq., interest shall be charged on any fee amount not paid within 30 days from the date it became due. The rate of interest assessed shall be the higher of the Prompt Payment Act rate or the rate of the current value of funds to the Treasury (i.e., the Treasury tax and loan account rate), as prescribed and published annually or quarterly by the Secretary of the Treasury in the Federal Register and the Treasury Fiscal Requirements Manual Bulletins. Interest on the principal shall accrue from the date the fee amount is due.

(b) Administrative Costs. If the account becomes delinquent, administrative costs to cover processing and handling the delinquency shall be assessed.

(c) Penalties. A penalty of 6% per annum shall be assessed on the total amount that is more than 90 days delinquent and shall accrue from the same date on which interest charges begin to accrue.

(d) Termination for Nonpayment. This permit shall terminate without the necessity of prior notice and opportunity to comply when any permit fee payment is 90 calendar days from the due date in arrears. The holder shall be responsible for the delinquent fees, as well as any other costs of restoring the site to its original condition, including hazardous waste cleanup.

4. Administrative Offset and Credit Reporting. Delinquent fees and other charges associated with the permit shall be subject to all rights and remedies afforded the United States pursuant to 31 U.S.C. 3711 et seq. and common law. Delinquencies are subject to any or all of the following:

(a) Administrative offset of payments due the holder from the Forest Service.

(b) If in excess of 60 days, referral to the Department of the Treasury for appropriate collection action as provided by
31 U.S.C. 3711(g)(1).

(d) Disclosure to consumer or commercial credit reporting agencies.

F. ACCESS TO RECORDS. For the purpose of administering this permit (including ascertaining that the correct land use fee was paid), the holder shall make all accounting books and supporting records for the authorized operations, as well as those of lessees operating in the permit area, available for review by the Forest Service or other federal agencies authorized to review the Forest Service activities. Review of accounting books and supporting records shall be made at dates convenient to the holder and reviewers.

The holder shall retain these records and keep them available for review for 5 years after they were generated, unless otherwise approved by the authorized officer in writing.

G. ACCOUNTING RECORDS. The holder shall follow GAAP or other comprehensive bases of accounting acceptable to the Forest Service in recording financial transactions and in reporting results to the authorized officer.

The holder shall require lessees to comply with these same requirements. At a minimum, the holder’s or lessees’ accounting system shall include:

1. Systematic internal controls, including recording by type of business the gross receipts derived from all operations conducted under this permit. Gross receipts should be recorded daily and, if possible, deposited into a bank account without reduction by disbursements. Receipt entries shall be documented by cash-register tapes, sale invoices, rental records, cash accounts from other sources, or some other means.

2. A permanent record of capital investments in facilities (including a depreciation schedule).

3. Generation and maintenance of such other records and accounts as may be specified by the authorized officer.

VII. REVOCATION, SUSPENSION, AND TERMINATION

A. REVOCATION AND SUSPENSION. The authorized officer may revoke or suspend this permit in whole or in part:

1. For noncompliance with federal, state, or local law.

2. For noncompliance with the terms and conditions of this permit.

3. For abandonment or other failure of the holder to exercise the privileges granted.

4. With the consent of the holder.

5. For specific and compelling reasons in the public interest.

Prior to revocation or suspension, other than immediate suspension under clause VII.C, the authorized officer shall give the holder (and if applicable, the operator) written notice of the grounds for revocation or suspension. In the case of revocation or suspension based on clause VII.A.1, VII.A.2, or VII.A.3, the authorized officer shall give the holder a reasonable period, not to exceed 90 days, to cure any noncompliance.

B. REVOCATION FOR SPECIFIC AND COMPELLING REASONS IN THE PUBLIC INTEREST

The authorized officer may revoke this permit during its term if the Forest Service determines through the process of amending or revising the applicable land management plan that the use and occupancy authorized by this permit should be changed for specific and compelling reasons in the public interest, other than a determination under clause IV.E. that the authorized improvements or the permit area cannot be safely occupied. Prior to revoking the permit under this clause, the authorized officer shall give the holder 90 days written notice to the holder, provided that the authorized officer may prescribe a shorter notice period if justified by the public interest. The Forest Service shall then have the right to purchase the holder’s authorized improvements, remove them or require the holder to relocate or remove them. The Forest Service shall be obligated to pay the lesser of (1) the cost of relocation of the authorized improvements and damages resulting from their relocation that are caused by the Forest Service or (2) the value of the authorized improvements as determined by the Forest Service through an appraisal of the market value of the improvements based on the Uniform Appraisal Standards for Federal Land Acquisitions (Uniform Standards). Where appropriate under the Uniform Standards, the potential of the improvements to generate income over the remainder of the term of the permit may be considered, but any consideration of future potential for income production shall be limited to the remainder of the permit term. If this amount is fixed by agreement between the authorized officer and the holder, that amount shall be accepted by the holder in full satisfaction of all claims against the United States under this clause. If agreement is not reached, the authorized officer shall determine the amount to be paid, which shall be set forth in the revocation decision. A payment made pursuant to this clause is subject to the availability of appropriations. Nothing in this permit implies that Congress will appropriate funds to cover a deficiency in appropriations.

C. IMMEDIATE SUSPENSION. The authorized officer may immediately suspend this permit in whole or in part when necessary to protect public health or safety or the environment. The suspension decision shall be in writing. The holder may request an on-site review with the authorized officer’s supervisor of the adverse conditions prompting the suspension. The authorized officer’s supervisor shall grant this request within 48 hours. Following the on-site review, the authorized officer’s supervisor shall promptly affirm, modify, or cancel the suspension.

D. APPEALS AND REMEDIES. Written decisions made by the authorized officer relating to administration of this permit are subject to administrative appeal pursuant to 36 CFR Part 214. Revocation or suspension of this permit shall not give rise to any claim for damages by the holder against the Forest Service, other than as provided in clause VII.B.

E. TERMINATION. This permit shall terminate when by its terms a fixed or agreed upon condition, event, or time occurs without any action by the authorized officer. Examples include but are not limited to expiration of the permit by its terms on a specified date and termination upon change of control of the business entity. Termination of this permit is not subject to administrative appeal and shall not give rise to any claim for damages by the holder against the Forest Service.

F. RIGHTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES UPON REVOCATION OR TERMINATION WITHOUT RENEWAL. Except as provided in clause VII.B, upon revocation of this permit or termination of this permit without renewal of the authorized use, the authorized officer has the discretion to require the holder to sell or remove all structures and improvements, except those owned by the United States, within a reasonable period prescribed by the authorized officer and to restore the site to the satisfaction of the authorized officer. If the holder fails to sell or remove all structures or improvements within the prescribed period, they shall become the property of the United States and may be sold, destroyed, or otherwise disposed of without any liability to the United States. However, the holder shall remain liable for all costs associated with their removal, including costs of sale and impoundment, cleanup, and restoration of the site.

G. CONTINUATION OF OBLIGATIONS AND LIABILITIES BEYOND EXPIRATION OR REVOCATION. Notwithstanding the termination or revocation of this permit, its terms and conditions shall remain in effect and shall be binding on the holder and the holder’s personal representative, successors, and assignees until all the holder’s obligations and liabilities accruing before or as a result of termination or revocation of this permit have been satisfied.

<USER NOTES FOR CLAUSE VIII.H>

<Include clause VIII.H when the lands authorized for use are withdrawn for hydroelectric power or reclamation purposes. Otherwise, delete it.>

H. TERMINATION FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF HYDROELECTRIC POWER OR RECLAMATION PURPOSES. Any lands covered by this permit which have been withdrawn for hydroelectric power under the act of March 3, 1879, or the act of June 25, 1910, or are covered by an application or license governed by the Federal Power Act of June 10, 1920, are subject at any time to use for the development of hydroelectric power. Any lands covered by this permit which have been withdrawn under the Reclamation Act of June 17, 1902, are subject at any time to use for reclamation purposes. This permit is issued with the specific understanding that (1) the use and occupancy authorized by this permit shall not interfere with such development of hydroelectric power or reclamation and that (2) the permit shall terminate after 90 days written notice when, in the judgment of the Federal Power Commission, the lands in question are needed for the development of hydroelectric power or, in the judgment of the Bureau of Reclamation, the lands in question are needed for reclamation purposes. The holder shall have 90 days to remove the authorized improvements. Termination under this clause shall not give rise to any claim by the holder against the Federal Power Commission, the Bureau of Reclamation, the Forest Service, or hydroelectric power licensees for damages, including lost profits and damage to improvements, due to such development of hydroelectric power or reclamation.
