The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is seeking public input on a draft environmental impact statement for the management of 3.2 million acres in Lake and Harney counties in Oregon.
The amendment was prepared in response to a 2010 court settlement with the Oregon Natural Desert Association. The new plan will address the management of public lands for wilderness characteristics, recreation and grazing.
“We welcome the public’s insight and input into how we can appropriately balance the management of these lands,” said Jami Ludwig, BLM Lakeview field manager. “This plan will help guide BLM’s management of this landscape for the next 20 years.”
Comments will be accepted through Sept. 5 and can be submitted at tinyurl.com/3uzm66nf.
