SRCA camping limit

I thought that as of 2009 the campsite limit was 8 people in the St Regis Canoe Area, as per the UMP. Says nothing at http://www.dec.ny.gov/lands/70572.html

To be sure, I emailed DEC at info.r5@dec.ny.gov & quickly got this reply:
"Here is the link to our camping rules that apply to camping on all state lands; http://www.dec.ny.gov/outdoor/7872.html

And here is a link to more specific rules on primitive camping on state lands; http://www.dec.ny.gov/outdoor/41282.html

Both of which apply to the St. Regis Canoe Area."

So this means the limit is 9.

I don't see why it would have changed & my gut tells me they gave me the wrong info. Anybody know for sure?
