Availability of a Draft Environmental Impact Statement and General Management Plan for Zion National Park Incorporating a Land Use Plan Amendment for the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) St. George Field Office Resource Management Plan

Pursuant to section 102(2)(c) of the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969, the BLM, St. George Field Office, Utah announces the availability of a Draft Environmental Impact Statement and General Management Plan (DEIS/GMP) for Zion National Park, Utah. The DEIS/GMP incorporates a land use plan amendment for the BLM St. George Field Office Resource Management Plan (1999). On February 17, 1998, the St. George Field Office published in the Federal Register a notice of intent to conduct a plan amendment within the Dixie Resource area (now known as St. George Field Office), Washington County, Utah. Further, the notice indicated that BLM initiated the plan amendment through a joint planning effort with Zion National Park for the purpose of conducting wild and scenic river studies of five specific tracts on BLM-managed land contiguous to the Zion National Park's boundary. The St. George Field Office and Zion National Park prepared a Memorandum of Understanding regarding this joint planning effort.
