Nebraska National Forest, Nebraska & South Dakota; Black-Tailed Prairie Dog (Cynomys ludovicianus) Management on the Nebraska National Forest and Associated Units
This project would amend current management direction in the Nebraska National Forest Land and Resource Management Plan (LRMP) for black-tailed prairie dog (Cynomys ludovicianus) management on the Nebraska National Forest and associated units (NNF).

A Notice of Intent (NOI) to supplement the 2002 LRMP environmental impact statement (EIS) for this project was published September 29, 2006 (71 FR 57460-57462).

This EIS would tier to 2002 LRMP. More than six months have elapsed since the projected FEIS date in that original NOI. Also, the responsible official has changed to Jane Darnell, Forest Supervisor (no change in title). This revised NOI is being issued to update the project schedule and responsible official.
