Resources on lands administered by the BLM within the planning area are currently managed under the Green River RMP (1997) and Jack Morrow Hills Coordinated Activity Plan (2006), as amended. The Green River RMP encompasses multiple Areas of Critical Environmental Concern, Special Management Areas, and Wilderness Study Areas. khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES Proposed RMP This Final EIS documents the comprehensive analysis of alternatives for the planning and management of public lands and resources administered by the Rock Springs Field Office. The Field Office administers various programs, including mineral exploration and development, renewable energy, wildlife habitat, outdoor recreation, wild horses, livestock grazing, and historic trails. The Final EIS provides analysis of potential management direction for important resource values and resource uses within the planning area and allocates the use of public lands for multiple uses. The Final EIS also provides management direction for the protection of certain resources while allowing for leasing and development of mineral resources, livestock grazing, and other activities at appropriate levels. The Proposed RMP was developed in response to public comment on the Draft EIS (published in August 2023) and is a mix of the other four alternatives analyzed. The Proposed RMP alternative provides for conservation of resource values with appropriate constraints on other resource uses, while addressing public concerns regarding flexibility for development, especially in areas most VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:23 Aug 22, 2024 Jkt 262001 likely to yield energy and mineral resources. The Proposed RMP provides for the improvement and protection of habitat for wildlife and sensitive plant and animal species, improvement of riparian areas, and implementation of management actions that improve water quality and enhance protection of cultural resources, as well as ensuring opportunities for recreation and responsible energy development. Protest of the Proposed RMP The BLM planning regulations state that any person who participated in the preparation of the RMP and has an interest that will or might be adversely affected by approval of the Proposed RMP may protest its approval to the BLM Director. Protest of the Proposed RMP constitutes the final opportunity for administrative review of the proposed land use planning decisions prior to the BLM adopting an approved RMP.
