The Department of the

Background
Program Backgrounds
1. Visitor Use
The Federal Land Policy and
Management Act (FLPMA) (43 U.S.C.
1701–1787) establishes the BLM’s
multiple use and sustained yield
mandate. In managing the public lands
in accordance with FLPMA, the BLM
occasionally issues temporary closure
and restriction orders under 43 CFR
8364.1 to protect persons, property,
public lands, and resources. The need to
temporarily close or restrict the use of
public land arises in various situations,
for example where a recreation site
requires routine maintenance or where
construction or heavy visitor use is
causing erosion or the creation of
unauthorized trails, or when an
unforeseen event warrants agency
action. As resource uses and demands
for access to public lands have
increased, the need for the BLM to issue
temporary closure and restriction orders
to protect persons, property, and the
public lands and their resources has
also increased.
2. Aquatic Resources
Office of the Secretary
AGENCY:
The Assistant Secretary for
Indian Affairs approves the fifth
amendment to the Tribal-State compact
for class III gaming between the
Stillaguamish Tribe of Indians of
Washington and the State of
Washington governing the operation
and regulation of class III gaming
activities. The amendment allows for
the operation of electronic table games
and removes provisions related to

actions to which the BLM will apply the
CXs, the considerations that the BLM
will use in determining the applicability
of the CXs, and the consultation
between the agencies on the use of the
CXs, including application of
extraordinary circumstances.
DATES: The adoption is effective January
15, 2025.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Riparian and wetland areas, lakes,
streams, and aquifers on public lands
managed by the BLM are among the
most important, productive, and diverse
resources in the Nation, providing
sustained value to the American public.
They provide habitat for myriad species
of plants, fish, and wildlife; provide
ecosystem services such as drinking
water, pollination, and nutrient cycling;
attenuate effects of wildfires, floods, and
drought; and are key to the vitality of
local economies and communities.
BLM-managed lands include
approximately 4,600 square miles of
lakes and reservoirs, over 155,000 miles
of streams and rivers, and over 20,000
square miles of wetlands and riparian
areas. The BLM Aquatic Resources
Program protects and restores water
