Draft RMP/EIS Public Meetings

RMPs for Western Oregon Map

In working with communities, developing innovative ideas and identifying the latest natural resource research, the BLM is planning how your public lands will be managed for the next twenty years. Throughout this planning effort, we need your thoughts, ideas, and participation.

The BLM is interested in engaging in dialogue with community partners, cooperating agencies, federal and state agencies and the general public.

Draft RMP/EIS public meetings

Seven Bureau of Land Management (BLM) offices offered opportunities for the public to learn about the Draft Resource Management Plan(RMP)/Environmental Impact Statement (EIS). These open houses and workshops were held in western Oregon, from May 19-June 30th. Members of the public were encouraged to attend their local outreach meetings to learn about the Draft, speak with BLM employees, and submit comments.
