Résumé

In compliance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA), the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 (FLPMA) and the Code of Federal Regulations (40 CFR 1501.7, 43 CFR 1610.5-5), notice is given that the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) will consider proposed amendments to the 1994 Diamond Mountain Resource Management Plan and the 1983 Price River Management Framework Plan. The proposed plan amendment would address future management of acquired lands within the Nine Mile Canyon area of the Vernal and Price Field Offices. An environmental assessment would be prepared to identify the environmental consequences of this action and determine whether an Environmental Impact Statement is needed. Public comment will be actively solicited throughout the planning and environmental assessment processes.
