The BLM will hold two in-person meetings in Santa Fe and one virtual meeting online. The specific dates and location(s) of these scoping meetings will be announced at least 15 days in advance through email, mail, local media, and on the ePlanning project web page identified in the ADDRESSES section, above. Dingell Act Recreational Shooting Closures In accordance with the John D. Dingell, Jr. Conservation, Management, and Recreation Act of 2019 (Dingell Act, Pub. L. 116–9, section 4103), the BLM is announcing the opening of a 60-day public comment period on the proposed permanent shooting closures in the areas described under Preliminary VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:25 Aug 24, 2022 Jkt 256001 Alternatives above. The closures are proposed to eliminate conflicts and safety issues associated with recreational shooting, including conflicts with other public lands users, neighboring residents, and the degradation of cultural and natural resources. The closures would relocate recreational shooting opportunities away from residential areas and encourage the use of developed shooting ranges where opportunities would be enhanced. The closures would also allow for the removal of trash and lead contaminants and the remediation of soils, vegetation, and wildlife habitat in the three areas. Comments may be submitted using any of the methods listed in the ADDRESSES section, above. Interdisciplinary Team The BLM will use an interdisciplinary approach to develop the plan and to consider the variety of resource issues and concerns identified. Specialists with expertise in the following disciplines will be involved in this planning effort: archaeology, botany, biology, land use planning, range management, realty, and outdoor recreation. Additional Information The BLM will identify, analyze, and consider mitigation to address the reasonably foreseeable impacts to resources from the proposed plan amendment and all reasonable alternatives and, in accordance with 40 CFR 1502.14(e), include appropriate mitigation measures not already included in the proposed plan amendment or alternatives. Mitigation may include avoidance, minimization, rectification, reduction or elimination over time, and compensation. Mitigation may be considered at multiple scales, including the landscape scale. The BLM will utilize and coordinate the NEPA and land use planning processes for this planning effort to help support procedural requirements under the Endangered Species Act (16 U.S.C. 1536) and Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (54 U.S.C. 306108) as provided in 36 CFR 800.2(d)(3), including public involvement requirements of section 106. The information about historic and cultural resources and threatened and endangered species within the area potentially affected by the proposed plan will assist the BLM in identifying and evaluating impacts to such resources. The BLM will consult with Indian Tribes on a government-to-government basis in accordance with Executive Order 13175, BLM MS 1780, and other PO 00000 Frm 00057 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 52415 Departmental policies. Tribal concerns, including impacts on Indian trust assets and potential impacts to cultural resources, will be given due consideration. Federal, State, and local agencies, along with Tribes and stakeholders that may be interested in or affected by the proposed plan amendment that the BLM is evaluating, are invited to participate in the scoping process and, if eligible, may request or be requested by the BLM to participate in the development of the EA as a cooperating agency.
