SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
planning area is located in parts of
Sherman, Gilliam, Morrow, Umatilla,
Grant, Wheeler, Jefferson, and Wasco
Counties in the State of Oregon,
covering 456,000 acres of BLM-managed
public land. The existing RMPs for the
area were completed in the 1980s: John
Day RMP (Record of Decision signed
1985), Two Rivers RMP (1986), and
Baker RMP (1989). The John Day RMP
was amended in 1995, and in 2001, the
John Day River Plan amended portions
of all three of the RMPs. New
information and changed circumstances
are cause for the BLM to update these
plans. Changed circumstances include,
but are not limited to: Acquisition of
44,000 acres along North Fork John Day
River, heightened public interest in
BLM management actions, increasing
demand for recreation activities on
public lands, and expanded scientific
knowledge and information pertaining
to the conservation of aquatic species.

In February 2006, the BLM published
a Notice of Intent to prepare an EIS and
initiate revision/amendment of the
existing RMPs. This was followed in
March 2006 by five public open houses
across the planning area and in
Portland, Oregon to solicit public input
on the issues to be addressed. The BLM
published results of public input and an
Analysis of the Management Situation
in December 2006, followed by four
public open houses across the planning
area to solicit input on criteria to be
used in development of alternatives.
The BLM also met regularly with the
John Day/Snake Resource Advisory
Council and with representatives of
local, state, and other Federal
government agencies, as well as tribal
governments. Additionally, the BLM
maintained a public Web site and
mailed periodic newsletters with
information on the plan’s status.
The Draft RMP/EIS analyzes five
alternatives. Alternative 1 (no action)
would continue the current
management goals, objectives, and
direction specified in the existing RMPs.
Alternative 2 (BLM preferred
alternative) would provide a mix of
recreational opportunities, economic
opportunities, and resource protection.
Changes from Alternative 1 to 2 include:
(a) Development of an interim road
system and a process for developing a
final transportation plan; (b) a reduction
in areas ‘‘open’’ for motorized use off of
roads; (c) synthesized management
direction to achieve forest and upland
health goals while providing for timber
and forage production and wildfire
prevention; (d) management direction
for the North Fork John Day River lands
that, in accordance with the land
acquisition legislation, protects native
fish, wildlife habitat, and public
recreation; (e) addition of an integrated
strategy to address fish, water quality,
and water quantity together; (f)
management direction for 11,929 acres
containing wilderness characteristics
not already protected by Wilderness or
Wilderness Study Area (WSA)
provisions; (g) use of ‘‘appropriate
management response’’ rather than full
suppression of all wildfires; and (h) a
process for identifying and addressing
management concerns in grazing
allotments. Alternatives 3, 4, and 5 are
similar to Alternative 2 in most
instances, but provide variation in the
amount of roadway open for motorized
travel, the number of areas open to offroad motorized use, the number and
classifications of river segments deemed
suitable for inclusion in the National
Wild and Scenic River System, and the
