BLM Pinedale Field Office Offers Community Workshop
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Pinedale Field Office (PFO) is hosting a community workshop to review the 2008 Pinedale Anticline Project Area (PAPA) Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) Record of Decision (ROD) on Saturday, Aug. 6 from 9 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. at the PFO Rendezvous Room at 1625 W. Pine St. in Pinedale, Wyo.
The workshop will include an overview of reasons for undertaking the supplemental EIS and will enhance understanding of the ROD’s intent and content, including where various decisions and commitments can be found within it. Past, current and future implementation activities will be discussed as well as the Wildlife Monitoring and Mitigation Matrix, air and water as topics of community interest.

The BLM manages more than 245 million acres of public land, the most of any Federal agency. This land, known as the National System of Public Lands, is primarily located in 12 Western states, including Alaska. The BLM also administers 700 million acres of sub-surface mineral estate throughout the nation. The BLM's multiple-use mission is to sustain the health, diversity, and productivity of the public lands for the use and enjoyment of present and future generations. In Fiscal Year 2012, activities on public lands generated $4.6 billion in revenue, much of which was shared with the States where the activities occurred. In addition, public lands contributed more than $112 billion to the U.S. economy and helped support more than 500,000 jobs.
