BLM released the Draft Resource Management Plan and Environmental Impact Statement on March 2, 2007. The document was available for a 90-day public review and comment period from March 2 to May 30, 2007. During the 90-day public comment period, BLM held a number of meetings to introduce the document and provide an opportunity for the public to comment. Meeting dates and locations are posted under Meeting Information.
