This was clarified by Bucks County Office this morning as there is
ambiguity in the published info apparently. The advice was
(paraphrasing) A current GF permit holder will not require Lightweight
adding to existing permit. If a ~new~ lightweight permit is issued it
will cover expedition style camping only and not GF (ie heavy canvas
or static) events.

A more interesting question might be whether Camp Site will cover a
lightweight expedition camping only at proper camp sites? If not, how
exactly does one define a lightweight expedition?
