The BLM has implemented a collaborative, community-based planning process for the RMP/EIS and public input is critical to its success. Issues raised through public participation have driven the different management options that are considered in the RMP which will ultimately lead to how BLM public lands are managed.

The Public Comment period on the Draft RMP was initiated by the publication of the Notice of Availability in the Federal Register on June 25, 2010.  The comment period was to end on September 25, 2010 but it was extended to October 25, 2010. 

For the BLM to formally consider your comments on the Draft Resource Management Plan / Environmental Impact Statement, written comments are required.  To submit comments you may open, fill out and print the mail-in (or fax-in) comment form .  E-mail comments can also be sent to  wdrmp@blm.gov .  Please include your name and mailing address in your e-mail (see privacy notice).  Comments are welcomed, reviewed, and considered throughout the planning process.
