Travis,
You should fall under the WISP heading here:
http://www.blm.gov/nhp/what/lands/realty/rental_schedule/
comm_uses_a1.pdf
Depending on what zone you are in the fees could be from 2-13,000.
The USFS/BLM is actually ahead of the game with this site:

These figures are generated by an office in Portland, OR IIRC.

Hi,
We are currently co-located on several towers that are located on
BLM (Forest Service) land. The tower owners have paid a mostly flat
fee for being on the ground (even with small, 20ft Rohn towers).
They are now doing "audits" on all of the towers in our area
(Southeast Idaho) and trying to put us in the cell phone category
for fees.
As an example, a 20ft tower that we just rent space. The tower
owner has paid $1,950 per year previously. They are now trying to
raise the fee to $5,500 per year.
Any suggestions on how to start fighting this?
