ACTION: Proposed Supplementary Rules.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: The Bureau of Land
Management (BLM) is proposing new
supplementary rules for the Hot Well
Dunes (HWD) Recreation Area, public
lands managed by the Gila District and
Safford Field Office in Graham County,
Arizona. The rules relate to the health
and safety of public land users and
protection of natural resources. These
supplementary rules will be enforced by
BLM law enforcement rangers within
the HWD Recreation Area.
Proposed rules address vehicle rider
capacity, clinging to or being towed by
a vehicle, safety flags, vehicle use,
public nudity, firearms, pets, speed
limit, camping, waste disposal, and
length of stay. All current
supplementary rules will be rescinded
and replaced by these revised rules for
the HWD Recreation Area.
DATES: We invite comments until
December 15, 2008. In developing final
rules, the BLM may not consider
comments postmarked or received after
this date.
ADDRESSES: Written comments may be
sent to the following address via regular
mail or other delivery service: Bureau of
Land Management, Safford Field Office,
711 14th Avenue, Safford, Arizona
85546. Comments may also be
submitted via e-mail to
Larry_Ramirez@blm.gov or faxed to
928–348–4450. You may access the

I. Comment Procedures
Written comments on the proposed
supplementary rules should be specific,
confined to issues pertinent to the
proposed supplementary rules, and
should explain the reason for any
recommended change. Where possible,
comments should reference the specific
section or paragraph of the rules that the
comment is addressing. You may also
access and comment on the proposed
supplementary rules at the Federal
eRulemaking Portal by following the
instructions at that site (see ADDRESSES).
The BLM need not consider or include
in the Administrative Record for the
final supplementary rules: (a)
Comments that the BLM receives after
the close of the comment period (see
DATES), unless they are postmarked or
electronically dated before the deadline,
or (b) comments delivered to an address
other than those listed above (see
ADDRESSES).
Before including your address, phone
number, e-mail address, or other
personal identifying information in your
comment, be advised that your entire
comment—including your personal
identifying information—may be made
publicly available at the Safford Field
Office, 711 14th Avenue, Safford,
Arizona 85546, during regular business
hours (8 a.m. to 4 p.m.), Monday
through Friday, except Federal holidays.
While you can ask us in your comment
to withhold from public review your
personal identifying information, we
cannot guarantee that we will be able to
do so. The BLM will make available for
public inspection in their entirety all
submissions from organizations,
businesses, and government agencies, or
from individuals identifying themselves
as representatives or officials of such
entities.
II. Background and Purpose
These proposed supplementary rules
apply to the designated HWD Recreation
Area, public lands administered by the
Gila District and Safford Field Office.
Due to increases in visitation at the
HWD, the nature of the terrain and
vegetation, and the types of vehicles in
use, the following rules are proposed to
reduce threats to public health, safety,
and property.
These supplementary rules will allow
the BLM to increase law enforcement
efforts that will help mitigate damage to
natural resources and provide for public
health and safe public recreation.
III. Discussion of Supplementary Rules
The Gila District/Safford Field Office
proposes to rescind all prior
supplementary rules for the HWD
