BLUERIBBON COALITION ACTION ALERT!



Dear BRC Action Alert Subscriber,

Public Meetings Continue for BLM's New Resource Management Plan

The Bureau of Land Management's (BLM) Boise District is beginning a new Resource Management Plan (RMP) for the Four Rivers Planning Area. The RMP will address management of over 783,000 acres of public lands located in nine west-central and southwestern counties. The counties include Adams, Valley, Washington, Payette, Gem, Boise, Canyon, Ada and Elmore.

The public is invited to provide the BLM with the issues they believe need to be addressed in the new RMP at an informational meeting being held on Wednesday, June 18, 2008, at the US Forest Service/Council Ranger District Office, 2092 Hwy 95, Council, Idaho, from 5:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.

The RMP is the basic document used to guide land use decisions and management actions on public lands for 20 years or more. The first step in this process is to work with interest groups and the public in identification of management issues. To achieve this, the BLM encourages the public's participation in scoping meetings.

If you would like more information about this process, contact Jon Beck at (208) 384-3305 or e-mail him at jonathan_m_beck@blm.gov.

Additional information can be found on the Idaho State Office web site at http://www.blm.gov/id/st/en/fo/four_rivers/Planning/four_rivers_resource.htmlor by emailing Four_Rivers_RMP@blm.gov.

As always, if you have any questions or concerns, please contact BRC.

Thanks in advance for your support,
Ric Foster
Public Lands Department Manager
