BLUERIBBON COALITION LANDUSE UPDATE!
Nevada BLM Seeks Comment on Draft Resource Management Plan and EIS
Dear BRC Action Alert Subscriber,
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Winnemucca District, located in northwest Nevada, is seeking public comments on their Draft Resource Management Plan (RMP) and Draft Environmental Impact Statement (EIS). The BLM would appreciate receiving substantive comments on the Draft RMP/EIS by September 25, 2010. The RMP will replace two outdated Management Framework Plans (MFPs) approved in 1982 and amended in 1999.
Once approved, the RMP will guide the management of federally approved activities on approximately 8.4 million acres of BLM-administered public lands and minerals in all of Humboldt and Pershing Counties, and portions of Washoe, Churchill and Lyon Counties.
The BLM developed the alternatives described in the RMP with input from other federal agencies, tribal, state and local governments, the Resource Advisory Council and the general public.
The Draft RMP/EIS is available on the Winnemucca District's web page at www.blm.gov/nv/st/en/fo/wfo/blm_information/rmp.html. Public comments may be submitted via regular mail to: Bob Edwards, Winnemucca District Office, 5100 E Winnemucca Blvd., Winnemucca NV 89445-2921 or via e-mail to wfoweb@nv.blm.gov. Email messages should include "Winnemucca RMP, Edwards" in the subject line.
For further information and/or to have your name added to the interested party mailing list, contact Bob Edwards, RMP Project Lead, at (775) 623-1500 or by e-mail to robert_edwards@blm.gov.
As always, if you have any questions or concerns, please contact BRC.
Thanks in advance for your support,
