Notes

The purpose of this resource management plan (RMP) amendment (RMPA) is to enhance cooperation with the States by modifying the approach to Greater Sage-Grouse management in existing RMPs to better align with individual state plans and/or conservation measures and Department of Interior (DOI) and Bureau of Land Management (BLM) policy. This document is considering amendments to eight BLM RMPs in Nevada and three RMPs in California. The environmental impact statement (EIS) describes and analyzes two alternatives, as well as the proposed plan amendment for managing Greater Sage-Grouse habitat on approximately 45.4 million acres of BLM-administered surface estate...Major planning issues addressed include modifying habitat management areas, Sagebrush Focal Area designations, adaptive management, allocation exceptions, mitigation, seasonal timing restrictions, and habitat objectives.
