Does anyone know how to give permissions and where the documentation is on how to setup permissions to /mnt ???
For instance I'm trying to give users permission to access and write to /mnt/Storage, /mnt/temp, /mnt/cdrom, /mnt/cdrom1 and /mnt/floppy

If you mean give them permission to actually perform a mount on these devices, then you need to add the user keyword to the devices entry in fstab, like:
| Code: | | /dev/cdroms/cdrom0 /mnt/cdrom iso9660 noauto,ro,user 0 0 |
otherwise, I think it should be the same as giving permissions to any other directory.
