Establishment of Supplementary Rule

for Use Management of Imperial Sand

Dunes Recreation Area, California

Desert District

AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management,

Interior.

ACTION: Establishment of supplementary

rule.

SUMMARY: The primary purpose of this

supplementary rule is enhancement of

public safety in the Imperial Sand

Dunes Recreation Area. This rule will

provide a safety zone between the heavy

traffic on Gecko Road and those

camping off the road.

The following rule is therefore

recommended:

1. No person shall camp or park on

the shoulder of Gecko Road in the

Imperial Sand Dunes Recreation Area

except where permitted by posted signs.

In areas where there is no obvious

shoulder, no one shall park or camp

within 10 feet of the pavement of Gecko

Rd. This includes all portions of Gecko

Road. For purposes of this rule, the

shoulder of the road is the compacted

road base that extends from the edge of

the pavement to where it drops off and

resumes the natural contour of the

surrounding terrain.

Background

The need for safety rules was

identified during a series of public

meetings held during preparation of the

Imperial Sand Dunes Recreation Area

Management Plan, completed in 1987.

Safety hazards and methods of reducing

them were high priority planning issues

identified by participants at the

planning meetings.

Additional safety precautions are

needed to prevent accident or injury

along Gecko Road. Visitors are parking

and camping immediately adjacent to

the road, and there is a high likelihood

of accidents or injuries involving

visitors parked or camped on the

shoulder of the road.

EFFECTIVE DATE: Effective upon date of

publication and will remain in effect

until rescinded or modified by the

authorized officer.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Chief Area Ranger Robert Zimmer,

Bureau of Land Management, El Centro

Resource Area, 1661 S. 4th St., El

Centro, CA 92243 (619) 337–4407.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The

authority for this restriction is provided

in 43 CFR 8365.1–6. Violation of this

restriction is punishable by a fine not to

exceed $100,000.00 and/or

imprisonment not to exceed 12 months.

Dated: February 26, 1997.
