NOTO doesn't agree with angry tourist outfitters upset with increases to their land rental fees. The organization that looks after tourist outfitters is standing by its decision to move to a market value rent system. Executive Director Doug Reynolds says they warned outfitters that the changes were coming. Reynolds says they negotiated the best deal they could and feels it's unfair to say they sold the industry out. Tourist outfitters used to pay a 125 dollar administration fee and now pay 825 dollars in rent.
