47834 Federal Register / Vol. 62, No. 176 / Thursday, September 11, 1997 / Notices

The following resources will be

considered in preparation of the

amendment: lands, wildlife, recreation,

wilderness, range, minerals, cultural

resources, watershed/soils, threatened/

endangered species, and hazardous

materials. Staff specialists representing

each resource will make up the

planning team. Planning issues will

include the same planning criteria

originally considered for the Medicine

Lodge RMP; however, issues for this

amendment are expected to primarily

involve the proposed WSA boundary

adjustment and the minor change in

land ownership. This action is not

expected to be controversial.

No public meetings are scheduled.

Current land use planning

information is available at the Idaho

Falls BLM office. Office hours are 7:45

a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday through

Friday except holidays.
