A public open house is scheduled for Wednesday, May 11, from 6 to 8 p.m., in the reception room of the Talons Cove Golf Club, 2220 South Talons Cove Dr., in Saratoga Springs. Participants will have the opportunity to gather more information and to leave comments.
It is the BLM's practice to make comments, including names and addresses of respondents, available for public review. Before including an address, phone number, email address, or other personally identifiable information in any comments, commenters should be aware that the entire comment—including personal identifying information—may be made publicly available at any time. Requests to withhold personal identifying information from public review can be submitted, but the BLM cannot guarantee that it will be able to do so.

Persons who use a telecommunications device for the deaf (TDD) may call the Federal Information Relay Service (FIRS) at (800) 877-8339 to leave a message or question for the above individuals.
