Notice of Availability of the CascadeSiskiyou National Monument Proposed
Resource Management Plan and Final
Environmental Impact Statement
Bureau of Land Management,
Interior.
ACTION: Notice of availability.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: In accordance with the
Federal Land Policy and Management
Act (FLPMA) of 1976 and the National
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of
1969, the Bureau of Land Management
(BLM) has prepared a Proposed
Resource Management Plan (PRMP) and
Final Environmental Impact Statement
(FEIS) for the Cascade-Siskiyou National
Monument (CSNM). This planning
activity encompasses approximately
52,947 acres of public land located in
Jackson County in southwestern Oregon.
The BLM has and will continue to work
closely with all interested parties to
identify management decisions that best
protect public lands in the monument.
Final decisions will supercede the
Medford District Resource Management
Plan completed in 1995 for lands within
the CSNM area and provide direction
for management of these public lands.
DATES: Publication of the Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA) Notice of
Availability initiates a 30 day protest
period. BLM Planning Regulations (43
CFR 1610.5–2) states that any person
who participated in the planning
process, and has an interest that may be
adversely affected, may protest. The
protest must be filed within 30 days of
the date that the EPA publishes this
notice in the Federal Register.
Instructions for filing of protests are
described in the ‘‘Dear Interested Party’’
letter of the CSNM PRMP/FEIS and

included in the SUPPLEMENTARY
INFORMATION section of this notice.
Comments on the Proposed Plan and
Final EIS may be submitted to Medford
District Office, Attn: Howard Hunter,
Project Manager, at the address listed
below.
ADDRESSES: Copies of the CSNM PRMP/
FEIS have been sent to affected Federal,
state, and local government agencies
and to known interested parties. The
PRMP/FEIS is available for public
inspection at the Medford District Office
in Medford, Oregon, during regular
business hours (7:45 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.,
Monday through Friday, except
holidays). Interested persons may also
review the PRMP/FEIS on the Internet at
https://www.or.blm.gov/Medford/CSNM.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Howard Hunter, Project Manager,
Bureau of Land Management, 3040
Biddle Road, Medford, Oregon, 97504,
telephone (541–618–2256) or fax (541–
734–2400).
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
proposed management described in the
PRMP/FEIS was developed based on the
four alternatives examined in the Draft
RMP/EIS (2002) and subsequent public
review and comment on the Draft RMP/
EIS (June 2002–December 2002).
The proposed management detailed in
the FEIS addresses vegetation
management, transportation and access,
livestock grazing, recreation, visitor use,
facilities, and rights-of-way. The PRMP
describes a management strategy for
meeting the primary goals of the
proclamation. An approved RMP/
Record of Decision is expected to be
available for the public by February
2005 after resolution of any protests.
Comments on the Draft RMP/EIS
received from the public and internal
BLM review comments were
incorporated into the proposed plan
where appropriate. Public comments
resulted in some additional analysis and
the addition of clarifying text, but did
not significantly change proposed land
use decisions.
Instructions for filing a protest with
the Director of the BLM regarding the
PRMP/FEIS may be found at 43 CFR
1610.5. A protest may only raise those
issues which were submitted for the
record during the planning process. Email and faxed protests will not be
accepted as valid protests unless the
protesting party also provides the
original letter by either regular or
overnight mail postmarked by the close
of the protest period. Under these
conditions, BLM will consider the email or faxed protest as an advance copy
and it will receive full consideration. If
you wish to provide BLM with such
