Sand Mountain Recreation Area, NV, Motorized Travel Restrictions
Notice is hereby given that motorized travel is restricted on 3,985 acres on certain public lands located in and adjacent to Sand Mountain Recreation Area, Churchill County, Nevada. These restrictions are necessary because motorized travel is adversely affecting wildlife and BLM finds that in order to prevent further adverse effects to the habitat of the Sand Mountain blue butterfly (Euphilotes pallescens arenamontana) restricting motorized travel is required. These restrictions will remain in effect until such time as the Resource Management Plan has been updated to address the long-term management of the wildlife, cultural, vegetation and recreation resources in the area or until the Field Office Manager determines it is no longer needed. Resource damage has already taken place and the potential for additional adverse effects occurring as a result of unrestricted off- highway vehicle (OHV) use within this area is substantial and significant.
