BLM Idaho Standards for Rangeland Health and Guidelines for Livestock Grazing Management. State-specific Standards for Rangeland Health and Guidelines for Managing Livestock Grazing were developed by BLM in the late 1990s. Idaho BLM's Standards and Guidelines were completed in 1997 and established eight ecological objectives that are to be achieved on all BLM-managed rangelands in Idaho. Idaho BLM is currently conducting assessments of all grazing allotment to determine if Idaho's Standards for Rangeland Health are being achieved. Each Idaho BLM field office has established a schedule for completing the assessments by 2009. If an assessment determines that an area is not meeting the standards for rangeland health, the Field Office prepares an analysis that identifies opportunities and methods to adjust grazing management and initiates the changes needed to make significant progress in improving rangeland health. These standards are being used to help guide the Coeur d'Alene RMP/EIS. See http://www.id.blm.gov/publications/data/SGFinal.pdf.
