ACECs, although approximately
3,337,000 acres would overlap with
proposed National Conservation Lands.
• Recreation: The Proposed LUPA
and Final EIS would identify Special
Recreation Management Areas (SRMAs)
and Extensive Recreation Management
Areas (ERMAs). The alternatives range
from 2,537,000 acres of SRMA
(Alternative 1) and 2,458,000 acres of
SRMA (Proposed Alternative). The
Proposed Alternative would also
include 946,000 acres of ERMAs. Under
the No Action Alternative, there would
be zero acres of ERMA, 193,000 acres of
SRMA, and 1,465,000 acres managed for
recreation emphasis.
Comments on the Draft RMP/Draft EIS
received from the public and internal
BLM review were considered and
incorporated as appropriate into the
proposed plan. Public comments
resulted in the addition of clarifying
text, but did not significantly change
proposed land use plan decisions.
Instructions for filing a protest with
the Director of the BLM regarding the
Proposed LUPA/Final EIS may be found
in the ‘‘Dear Reader’’ Letter of the
DRECP Proposed LUPA and Final EIS
and at 43 CFR 1610.5–2. All protests
must be in writing and mailed to the
appropriate address, as set forth in the

the close of the protest period. Under
these conditions, the BLM will consider
the emailed protest as an advance copy
and it will receive full consideration. If
you wish to provide the BLM with such
