SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Draft RMP/Draft EIS addresses public

Elmore, Owyhee, and Twin Falls Counties in south-central Idaho and Elko 
County in northern Nevada. These lands and resources are currently 
managed under the 1987 Jarbidge RMP, as amended. The planning area 
extends from the Bruneau River on the west to Salmon Falls Creek on the 
east, and from the Snake River on the north to the northern boundaries 
of the BLM Elko Field Office and the Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest 
on the south.
    The Jarbidge RMP addresses management on approximately 1.4 million 
acres of public land and 1.6 million acres of Federal mineral estate in 
the Jarbidge Field Office. Planning decisions in the RMP will only 
apply to the BLM-administered public lands and mineral estate in the 
planning area.
    The Draft RMP/Draft EIS includes a series of management actions, 
within six management alternatives, designed to achieve or maintain 
desired future conditions that have been defined through the planning 
process for various concerns including, but not limited to: vegetation, 
livestock grazing, recreation, energy development, and Areas of 
Critical Environmental Concern (ACEC).

    Authority:  40 CFR 1506.6, 1506.10 and 43 CFR 1610.2, 1610.5.
