“I find myself opposing the demonstration fee program, and having to find myself on the opposite side of my own Chairman. However, the fact is that I think that we have had sufficient time to see how the demonstration fee program is really working, and as it was first conceived, it has not worked well as far as the public is concerned. The fact is that I really do think that the gentleman from Utah (Mr. Hansen) is right, and perhaps for the national parks where there is a lot of high maintenance, and where there are facilities that need upkeep, we need to revisit that with the demonstration fee program. But as the demonstration fee program has been conceived of and is being extended in this bill, it is not working well.”
