The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Buffalo Field Office is seeking input on a proposed land exchange in northern Campbell County, WY.
BLM and the Quarter Circle 7 Ranch are proposing to exchange, in two phases, approximately 2,372 acres of nonfederal land for up to 4,678 acres of isolated and scattered BLM-administered parcels. The exchange would increase public access by creating an approximately 10,347-acre contiguous block of public lands.
“Part of our assessment is determining whether the exchange is in the public’s interest,” said Buffalo Field Manager Todd Yeager. “Hearing from the public early in the process is important.”
The BLM will host a public scoping meeting on July 20 from 5-7 p.m. at the Campbell County Public Library, 2101 S 4-J Rd., Gillette, WY 82718.
Written comments must be submitted by Aug. 8, 2022, and may be submitted through the e-planning project webpage at eplanning.blm.gov/eplanning-ui/project/2019435/510 or by email to BLM_WY_Buffalo_WYMail@blm.gov.
