Burning Man Organizers Battle Federal Government Bill

Description

Burning Man organizers will reportedly fight a $2.8 million bill from the federal government that was issued this week. The bill is said to be the cost last year for hosting the popular outdoor festival in the Black Rock Desert, which is a national conservation area in the state of Nevada. The festival's special recreation permit from the Bureau of Land Management is the largest of its kind in the country. Burning Man organizers usually agree to and pay for a cost estimate before the event.
