Notice of Availability of the Draft
Environmental Impact Statement for
the Revision of Resource Management
Plans of the Western Oregon Bureau of
Land Management Districts
Department of the Interior,
Bureau of Land Management.
ACTION: Notice of Availability.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: In accordance with the
National Environmental Policy Act, the
Federal Land Policy and Management
Act, and the Revested Oregon and
California Railroad and Reconveyed
Coos Bay Wagon Road Grant Lands Act
(O&C Lands Act), the Bureau of Land
Management (BLM) has prepared a Draft
Resource Management Plan/Draft
Environmental Impact Statement
(DRMP/DEIS) to revise selected portions
of the 1995 Resource Management Plans
(RMPs) for six BLM districts in western
Oregon. These revisions will address the
sustained yield timber production
provisions of the O&C Lands Act as well
as resource protection provisions of the
Endangered Species Act and the Clean
Water Act. The alternatives in the
DRMP/DEIS also comply with the 2003
settlement agreement between the
Secretary of the Interior and the
American Forest Resource Council
(AFRC, et al v. Clarke).
DATES: The 90-day public comment
period on the DRMP/DEIS will begin the
date the Environmental Protection
Agency publishes their Notice of
Availability (NOA) in the Federal
Register. Comments must be received
on or before the end of the comment

period at the address listed below.
Public meetings to gather comments on
the DRMP/DEIS will be held in a
number of locations throughout the
western Oregon planning area. Public
meetings and any other public
involvement activities will be
announced at least 15 days in advance
through public notices, media news
releases, newsletter mailings, and on the
Western Oregon Plan Revisions Web site
at: www.blm.gov/or/plans/wopr/

DRMP/DEIS will also be available for
inspection at public libraries and BLM
offices in western Oregon.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
DRMP/DEIS for the Revision of
Resource Management Plans of the
Western Oregon BLM Districts has
developed and analyzed four
alternatives (including the No Action
Alternative) for managing
approximately 2,550,000 acres of
Federal land, mostly revested Oregon
and California Railroad and Coos Bay
Wagon Road Grant lands, within the
Western Oregon planning area. BLM has
analyzed revision of six RMPs with this
single EIS. The RMPs being revised are
the Salem, Eugene, Roseburg, Medford,
and Coos Bay District RMPs and the
Klamath Falls Resource Area RMP in
the Lakeview District.
Public comments received during
scoping played an important role in
shaping the alternatives, which are
described and analyzed in the DRMP/
DEIS.
The No Action Alternative maintains
the decisions in the existing RMPs.
Alternative One creates latesuccessional management areas similar
to the large late-successional reserves in
the no action alternative, applies new
criteria for designating the width of
riparian management areas, and
provides for intensive forest
management on other areas.
Alternative Two designates late
successional management areas based
on habitat requirements for the northern
spotted owl and marbled murrelet,

sroberts on PROD1PC70 with PROPOSALS
Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 154 / Friday, August 10, 2007 / Notices
applies new criteria for designating the
width of riparian management areas,
and provides for intensive timber
management on other areas.
Alternative Three manages most of
the land base for timber production
under long (240–360 years, depending
on the area) rotations, or uneven-aged
management in fire-prone ecosystems,
in order to provide late-successional
habitat across the landscape. Six subalternatives, which are variations of the
three action alternatives, are also
analyzed.
The major resource management plan
issues include:
• Providing a sustainable supply of
wood and other forest products as
mandated by the O&C Lands Act, while
also meeting other applicable laws.
• Providing for conservation of
species listed under the Endangered
Species Act.
• Contributing to meeting the goals of
the Clean Water Act and the Safe
Drinking Water Act.
• Reducing the risk of wildfire and
integrating fire back into the ecosystem.
The preferred alternative designates
93 of the 124 existing and potential
Areas of Critical Environmental Concern
(ACEC) considered in detail. Many of
the ACECs are also designated Research
Natural Areas (RNA) or Outstanding
Natural Areas (ONA).
