I came across this today on a fly fishing web site I regularly frequent.  It was posted by a Bureau of Land Management employee who works as a river ranger on the John Day.

Many Wild and Scenic Rivers in the Northwest get hammered by the amount of human use they receive.  To reduce the impact, the BLM is requiring folks to do things like use fire pans (or forgo fires altogether), and to have a river toilet.  River toilets that are designed for whitewater rafting are nice, but big and expensive.  Here's a web page that tells you how to make your own sealed, kayak-sized toilet for almost nothing.
