Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 122 / Friday, June 25, 2010 / Notices
The
Winnemucca District Draft RMP/Draft
EIS was developed through a
collaborative planning process. The
Winnemucca RMP decision area
encompasses approximately 7.2 million
acres of public land administered by the
BLM Winnemucca District, which are
located in Humboldt, Pershing, Lyon,
Churchill and Washoe counties,
Nevada. It does not include private
lands, State lands, Indian reservations,
Federal lands not administered by BLM
or lands addressed in the Black Rock
Desert-High Rock Canyon, Emigrant
Trails National Conservation Area RMP
EIS (July 2004).
The Draft RMP/Draft EIS includes
strategies for protecting and preserving
the biological, wildlife, cultural,
recreational, geological, educational,
scientific, and scenic values while
managing for sustainable development,
energy and mineral development, and
livestock grazing. Current guidance is
provided by the Sonoma-Gerlach and
Paradise-Denio Management Framework
Plans (1982) and land use plan
amendments (1999). The key issues
raised during the planning process
include landscape health, recreation,
access, transportation routes, wilderness
characteristics, and visual resources.
Five alternatives, including a no-action
alternative, were developed in response
to these key issues. The alternatives also
address air resources, biological
resources, cultural resources, fire
management, grazing management,
hazardous materials, lands and realty,
mineral and energy resources, Native
American issues, social and economic
conditions, soils, and water resources.
The no action alternative, Alternative A,
represents the current management of
public lands within the Winnemucca
District. The four action alternatives,
Alternatives B through D, present
reasonable, yet varying, management
scenarios. The alternatives range from
emphasizing maintenance of the
naturalness of the Winnemucca District
decision area, by restricting some
human uses, to emphasizing continued
human uses. Comments collected
during the scoping process in 2005,
during which four public open houses
were held, were instrumental in
determining the issues to be addressed.
Through the Draft RMP/Draft EIS, the
BLM is seeking public input on the
developed alternatives that address
these issues. The Winnemucca District’s
preferred alternative is Alternative D
which focuses on a balance between
managing public lands for economic
and recreational growth while
protecting valuable resources.

Alternative D also incorporates
sustainable development principles and
techniques to achieve this balance.
The Osgood Mountains Milkvetch
Area of Critical Environmental Concern
(ACEC) is the only special designation
area currently within the Winnemucca
District. The use limitations in this area
include: closure to mineral material
disposal (salable minerals); no surface
occupancy and stipulations to
accompany fluid and solid mineral
leasing; locatable minerals withdrawn
from entry; and Visual Resource
Management (VRM) Class II. Alternative
B mirrors the Alternative A management
of the ACEC. Alternative C proposes to
designate three new ACECs: Pine Forest,
Raised Bog and Stillwater Range.
Management of all four ACECs would be
as follows: closed to mineral material
disposal (salable minerals), fluid
mineral and solid mineral leasing;
locatable minerals withdrawn from
entry; priority fire suppression areas;
and VRM Class II. Alternative D is
almost identical to the proposal in
Alternative C and in addition the
proposed ACECs would be closed to
new communication sites. The proposed
Pine Forest, Raised Bog, and Stillwater
Range ACECs would be open for
acquiring the rights to locatable
minerals with special mitigation on
operations. Alternative D proposes to
manage the Osgood Mountains
Milkvetch ACEC as a VRM Class III.
