The Bureau of Land Management and the U.S. Forest Service are jointly engaged in a land use plan amendment process, developing a management strategy for lands they administer. Both agencies' regulations provide for administrative review of the proposed decision before it is recorded. The responsible officials for both agencies have agreed to use one administrative review process in order to simplify the process for the public and for the agencies. The responsible officials further decided to use, as the single review process, the Bureau of Land Management's protest process. Using this single process allows the public to seek review from both agency heads with one request.
