significant rise in the
ting and maintenance
of Ontario's 127
provincial parks has
necessitated these fee in-
creases," Miller said.
"It is the government's
policy that a fair share of the
total operating and main-
tenance costs of our parks
should be paid by the users,"
the Minister told Members.
"On the other hand, capital
investment for land
acquisition and park
development is not charged
back through user fees."
In 1972, when the park fees
were last raised, the "fair
share" represented 60 per
cent of the operating and
maintenance cost, but in the
past five years this per-
centage has slipped to about
34 per cent, Miller said.
Under the new restrictions
on the use of alcohol,
possession of an open con-
tainer of alcoholic beverage
will be limited to campers on
their campsites,,,Miller said.
In addition, alcoholic
`"beverages will be banned
entirely in certain southern
Ontario parks at selected
periods during the season.
"These two measures are
aimed at assisting in the
control of rowdyism, about
which the Ontario Provincial
Parks 'Council expressed
concern in its annual report,"
Miller said.
During the first year in
1978, alcohol bans will be
applied on an experimental
basis.
