SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The East
Alaska RMP planning area covers 7.1
million acres of BLM-administered
lands. The Draft EARMP/EIS focuses on
the principles of multiple use and
sustained yield as prescribed by Section
202 of the FLPMA. The Draft EARMP/
EIS considers and analyzes four
alternatives, including a No Action and
a Preferred Alternative. The alternatives
provide for an array of variable levels of
commodity production and resource
protection and restoration. The
alternatives were developed based on
extensive public scoping and
involvement.
There are seven main issues
addressed through this planning
process. Issue 1, Travel Management,
addresses management of access, roads,
and the use of off-highway vehicles for
various purposes, including recreation,
commercial uses, subsistence activities,
and the general enjoyment of public
lands while protecting natural and
cultural resources. Issue 2, Recreation,
examines how recreation should be
managed to provide a diversity of
experiences on BLM-managed lands.
The document analyzes what measures
are necessary to ensure that a diversity
of recreational opportunities is
maintained and what level of
commercial recreational use is
appropriate to maintain a diversity of
recreational opportunities. Issue 3,
Special Resource Values, focuses on
those unique, special values located
within the planning area that were
identified by resource specialists and
the public, and includes discussions on
wildlife, fisheries, soil, water, air, and
vegetation. Issue 4, Lands and Realty,
addresses the need to determine the
appropriate mix of lands and realty
actions needed to provide a balance
between land use and resource
protection. Special attention is paid to
the Slana Settlement area, and the
establishment of conditions that would
make the area available for disposal
while considering the effects of disposal
on the social and environmental
conditions of the area. Issue 5,
VerDate jul<14>2003
16:04 Apr 28, 2005
Jkt 205001
Vegetation Management, examines
management to provide for forest health,
personal and commercial wood
products, and fish and wildlife habitat.
The role of fire is also explored. Issue
6, Leasable and Locatable Minerals,
addresses the need to determine which
areas should be made available for
mineral exploration and development.
Issue 7, Subsistence/Social and
Economic Conditions, examines the
need to maintain and protect
subsistence opportunities and resources,
as well as how the management actions,
guidelines, and allowable uses
described under the other issues will
affect subsistence opportunities and
resources. Social and economic effects
are also addressed as part of this
discussion.
The public involvement and
collaboration process implemented for
this effort included 30 public scoping
meetings, 17 alternative development
meetings, and meetings with Native and
Village Corporations. The State of
Alaska is participating in the planning
effort as an informal cooperator.
After comments on the Draft EARMP/
EIS are reviewed and any adjustments to
the document are made, a Proposed
RMP and Final Environmental Impact
Statement are expected to be available
in the fall of 2005.

State Director.
