The
Carson City District Draft RMP/Draft EIS
would replace the existing 2001 Carson
City Field Office Consolidated RMP.
The Draft RMP/Draft EIS was developed
through a collaborative planning
process. The Carson City District Draft
RMP/Draft EIS decision area
encompasses approximately 4.8 million
acres of public land administered by the
BLM Carson City District in portions of
11 counties within 2 States (Washoe,
Storey, Carson City, Douglas, Lyon,
Churchill, Mineral, and Nye counties
within Nevada; and Alpine, Plumas,
and Lassen counties within California).
It does not include private lands, State
lands, Indian reservations, Federal lands
not administered by BLM. The Carson
City District Draft RMP/Draft EIS
includes goals, objectives and
management actions for protecting and
preserving natural resources which
includes air quality, soil and water
resources, vegetation, fish and wildlife,
special status species, wild horses and
burros, wildland fire management,
cultural and paleontological resources,
visual resource values, and lands with
wilderness characteristics. Multiple
resource uses are addressed which
include management and forage
allocations for livestock grazing;
delineation of lands open, closed, or
subject to special stipulations or
mitigation measures for minerals
development; recreation and travel
management designations; management
of lands and realty actions, including
delineation of avoidance and exclusion
areas applicable to rights-of-ways
(ROWs), land tenure adjustments, and
solar and wind energy development.
The planning effort will consider
establishment of a national trail
management corridor for the
congressionally-designated California
and Pony Express National Historic
Trails. Eligible river segments will be
evaluated for suitability as components
of the National Wild and Scenic River
System and 23 new Areas of Critical
Environmental Concern (ACECs) are
proposed. The ACECs are proposed to
protect natural and cultural resource
values and traditional Native American
use areas.
Authority: 40 CFR 1506.6, 40 CFR
