The State Director identified Alternative C as the preferred alternative in the Draft EIS. The BLM received a total of 6,820 letter submissions during the public comment period on the Draft RMP/EIS, including 5,216 letters that contained non-unique, preformulated language that appeared in other letter submissions. There were 1,604 unique submissions, from which the BLM identified substantive comments. Most submissions were focused on suggestions for specific alternatives or alternative elements, statements of support or lack thereof for an alternative, and detailed input pertaining to various resource topics analyzed in the draft EIS, such as livestock grazing, travel and transportation, fish and wildlife, and vegetation. Based on public comments on the Draft RMP/EIS, the BLM has prepared the Final EIS and developed new appendices that provide additional consistency, clarity, and accuracy. In Appendix J, the BLM has provided responses to substantive comments on the Draft RMP/EIS, proposed recreational shooting closures, and Areas of Critical Environment Concern/ Research Natural Areas. The BLM also developed the Proposed RMP (Alternative E) as presented in the Final EIS. Alternative E is based on Alternative C with a combination of components from the various other action alternatives, and as such, is within the range of alternatives considered in the Draft RMP/EIS. Alternative E was developed and refined based on consideration of public comments received during the 90-day comment period on the Draft RMP/EIS, consultation with cooperating agencies, government-to-government consultation with interested Tribal Nations, and updates to the best available science and information. The primary changes from the Draft RMP/EIS to the Proposed RMP/Final EIS include: the addition of Alternative E and associated analysis; the use of updated assessment, inventory, and monitoring data to revise the list of departed watersheds (watersheds with a high degree of departure from reference conditions); supplemental Areas of Critical Environmental Concern and Research Natural Area nominations and evaluations; management of recreational shooting; the inclusion of public comment process, summary, and responses; the development of a monitoring plan; the inclusion of a final air quality emissions inventory; the completion and inclusion of the Old Spanish National Historic Trail Corridor VerDate Sep<11>2014 20:35 Aug 29, 2024 Jkt 262001 Assessment and Inventory Report and associated management direction and analysis; and the review of applicable State and local land use plans for plan consistency. 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 on 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. Instructions for filing a protest regarding the Proposed RMP with the BLM Director may be found online at https://www.blm.gov/programs/ planning-and-nepa/publicparticipation/filing-a-plan-protest and at 43 CFR 1610.5–2. All protests must be in writing and mailed to the appropriate address, as set forth in the ADDRESSES section earlier or submitted electronically through the BLM ePlanning project website as described previously. Protests submitted electronically by any means other than the ePlanning project website will be invalid unless a protest is also submitted as a hard copy. The BLM Director will render a written decision on each protest. The Director’s decision shall be the final decision of the Department of the Interior. Responses to valid protest issues will be compiled and documented in a Protest Resolution Report made available following the protest resolution online at: https:// www.blm.gov/programs/planning-andnepa/public-participation/protestresolution-reports. Upon resolution of protests, the BLM will issue a Record of Decision and Approved RMP. Before including your phone number, email address, or other personal identifying information in your protest, you should be aware that your entire protest—including your personal identifying information—may be made publicly available at any time. While you can ask us in your protest to withhold your personal identifying information from public review, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to do so.
