These land based allotments are located within Lincoln County in the south-central portion of the Ely District BLM, ranging approximately seven to 21 miles south of Caliente, Nevada (Map #1).
 
The Meadow Valley, Ash Flat, Pennsylvania and Rainbow Allotments encompass approximately 3,971, 3,247, 30,971, and 7,033 acres, respectively. The first four are located in the Meadow Valley Wash North (#N 214 A) Watershed. The Rainbow Allotment is located in the Meadow Valley Wash North and Kane Springs (#217) Wash Watershed.
 
None of the allotments in the Proposed Action are located within a Wild Horse Herd Management Area (HMA) or desert tortoise habitat. A portion of the Pennsylvania Allotment is located within the Clover Mountains Wilderness Area.
 
An evaluation of rangeland monitoring data and rangeland health will be conducted for the aforementioned allotments. This data will be summarized in a Standards Determination Document that will be provided for public review at a later date.
