Socio-Economic Workshop

July 29th and 31st

Albuquerque 
and Grants

We are hosting two Socio-Economic Workshops in Albuquerque and Grants, New Mexico. The workshops encourage participants to work together to answer questions about the evolving nature of the West, discuss the strengths and weaknesses of the area’s economic situation, and to dispel myths about the local economy.

Successful resource management cannot occur without involving the communities close to those public lands. This workshop is an excellent way to strengthen the many existing partnerships in the community and to create new partnerships to help promote a common vision for public land management.

Most of the people attending the workshop will represent a variety of interests in Bernalillo, Cibola, Torrance, and Valencia Counties, most of Sandoval County, and portions of McKinley County, including Federal, state and local governments, and several representatives from the private sector and constituent groups.

Please RSVP by close of business on Thursday, July 24. If you would like to attend, please give Joe Blackmon a call. You can reach him at (505) 761-8918. Space is limited.

Comments
Yes, it's still true. If you didn't get your comments into to us by the deadline of May 31, don't worry. Although it was best that you sent in your information by our deadline, (think early bird and worms) you will have another chance to make general comments that will be taken in consideration for the analysis of alternatives until September 30, 2008. You can still comment by email at nm_rpfo_comment@blm.gov and mail your comments to 435 Montaño NE, Albuquerque, NM 87107. 

You can comment on the topic issues that we came up with or if you have some other ideas that we did not think of, please let us know about it through the commenting process. This is about gathering information about what affects you and the land. Give us a call or drop us a note to let us know your interests, thoughts and ideas. We are here to listen and are anxious to hear your ideas.

For further information, you may contact Joe Blackmon, RMP Team Lead, (505) 761-8918 or Sabrina Flores, Technical Coordinator (505) 761-8794.
