Notice of Intent

AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management,

Interior.

ACTION: Notice of intent to prepare

proposed plan amendment for the San

Juan Resource Management Plan (RMP).

SUMMARY: The Bureau of Land

Management San Juan Field Office is

proposing to amend the San Juan RMP

in order to change certain specific

management decisions regarding

recreation and other programs.

DATES: Comments on these proposed

amendments should be submitted no

later than 30 days after publication of

this notice or January 16, 1998 to the

address listed below.

ADDRESSES: Comments and/or questions

regarding this proposed amendment

must be submitted to San Juan Field

Office, Bureau of Land Management,

435 North Main Street, P. O. Box 7,

Monticello, UT 84535.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Robin Fehlau, Outdoor Recreation

Planner, Project Lead, San Juan Field

Office, Bureau of Land Management,

435 North Main Street, P. O. Box 7,

Monticello, UT 84535. Telephone (801)

587–1500.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The San

Juan RMP was approved in March of

1991. Since that period there has been

a significant increase in recreational use

that has lead to degradation of sensitive

resources including riparian areas,

cultural sites, visual resources etc., in

the Indian Creek Area and other areas of

the Canyon Basins Special Recreation

Management Area. Preliminary issues

that have been identified for proposed

plan amendment include camping

restrictions and modifications to

existing OHV designations in order to

reduce resource degradation, firewood

closures to reduce degradation in

riparian areas, and the addition of

specific management prescriptions in

the Bridger Jack Mesa Areas of Critical

Environmental Concern (ACEC),

Lavender Mesa ACEC, and Shay Canyon

ACEC to reduce resource degradation

from uncontrolled recreation use.

No new planning criteria have been

developed specifically for this proposed

plan amendment. An interdisciplinary

team will be used to analyze this

proposed amendment in addition to

other alternatives that may be

considered.

Dated: December 10, 1997.

Acting State Director.
