SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

RODs/Approved RMP Amendments 

update how the BLM manages public 

lands in Colorado and Oregon that 

support Western communities and 

enhance conservation for Greater SageGrouse and more than 350 other wildlife 

species. The plan amendments in these 

two States are part of a rangewide 

approach, developed with 10 States, 

Tribes, local communities, and the 

public to enhance conservation for 

Greater Sage-Grouse and its habitat. 

While the Governors of Colorado and 

Oregon did not identify any 

inconsistencies with the plans, policies, 

or programs of their States or potential 

inconsistencies were resolved, the BLM 

made minor changes from the Proposed 

RMP to these RODs/Approved RMP 

Amendments to resolve potential 

inconsistencies raised by other States. 

The BLM made these minor changes to 

maintain a consistent rangewide 

approach to Greater Sage-Grouse 

management and promote coordination 

between the BLM and the States. The 

minor changes include clarifying that 

areas identified as Priority Habitat 

Management Areas with limited 

exceptions under the Proposed RMP 

will be identified only as Priority 

Habitat Management Areas. A further 

explanation of this and other changes 

can be found in the Oregon and 

Colorado RODs/Approved RMP 

Amendments. 

The States of North Dakota, South 

Dakota, and California did not submit 

any administrative protests or identify 

any inconsistencies with State plans, 

policies, or programs, so the BLM has 

completed the administrative process 

for finalizing those plans, and is 

prepared to issue RODs for those three 

States. The BLM continues to work 

closely with wildlife managers in five 

other States to finalize decisions to 

conserve and improve habitat across the 

Greater Sage-Grouse’s range. Until new 

RODs are signed, the BLM will continue 

to manage Greater Sage-Grouse habitat 

on public lands in those eight States 

under the 2015 Greater Sage-Grouse 

RMP decisions. 

This Greater Sage-Grouse planning 

process builds on existing direction 

related to Greater Sage-Grouse 

conservation, established in earlier 

planning efforts, responds to updated 

scientific information and changing 

land uses, and provides for consistent 

and effective rangewide conservation 

based on biological information that is 

responsive to locally relevant habitat 

variability. Upon finalization, these 

RMP Amendments update or will 

update goals, objectives, allocations, 

and management direction in 77 

resource management plans in 

California, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, 

Nevada, North Dakota, Oregon, South 

Dakota, Utah, and Wyoming. 

The BLM provided the Proposed RMP 

Amendments for public protest on 

November 15, 2024, for a 30-day protest 

period and received 60 unique protest 

letters. The BLM resolved all protests, 

compiling and documenting responses 

to protest issues in a Protest Resolution 

Report (see ADDRESSES). Through its 

review, the BLM determined that no 

changes from the Proposed RMP 

Amendments/Final EISs were 

necessary, although the BLM made 

minor changes for clarification and to 

improve implementation as described in 

the Oregon and Colorado RODs/ 

Approved RMP Amendments. 

The BLM provided the Proposed RMP 

Amendments to the Governors of 

California, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, 

Nevada, North Dakota, Oregon, South 

Dakota, Utah, and Wyoming for 60-day 

Governor’s consistency reviews. As 

discussed above, the Governors of 

California, North Dakota, South Dakota, 

and Colorado did not identify any 

inconsistencies with State plans, 

policies, or programs. The BLM resolved 

all potential inconsistencies identified 

by the Governor of Oregon to the 

Governor’s satisfaction. The BLM is 

continuing to work with Idaho, 

Montana, Nevada, Utah, and Wyoming 

to resolve any remaining asserted 

inconsistencies. 

The BLM’s Principal Deputy Director 

signed the RODs/Approved RMP 

Amendments, which are in effect upon 

signature.

SUMMARY: Pursuant to the Federal Lands 

Recreation Enhancement Act (FLREA), 

the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), 

Salmon Field Office will establish a fee 

program for a reservable rental cabin 

known as Tarpons Roost, constructed on 

the Continental Divide near Lemhi Pass, 

in Lemhi County, Idaho. 

DATES: Starting July 17, 2025, the BLM 

will have the option to initiate the 

proposed fees unless the BLM publishes 

a Federal Register notice to the 

contrary. 

ADDRESSES: Copies of relevant 

supporting documents for this action 

may be reviewed at the BLM Salmon 

Field Office, 1206 South Challis St.,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The BLM 

is committed to provide and receive fair 

value for the use of developed 

recreation facilities and services in a 

manner that meets public use demands, 

provides quality experiences, and 

protects important resources. The BLM’s 

policy is to collect fees at specialized 

recreation sites, or where the BLM 

provides facilities, equipment, or 

services, at Federal expense, in 

connection with outdoor use. To meet 

anticipated demands for services and 

maintenance at Tarpons Roost, the BLM 

will establish a fee program for cabin 

facility use. This fee will be used for the 

maintenance and yearly operations cost 

of Tarpons Roost. Starting July 17, 2025, 


KHAMMOND on DSK9W7S144PROD with NOTICES
5988 Federal Register / Vol. 90, No. 11 / Friday, January 17, 2025 / Notices 

the BLM will initiate the approved $75 

per night expanded amenity fee. 

The FLREA directs the Secretary of 

the Interior and Secretary of Agriculture 

to publish an advance notice in the 

Federal Register whenever new 

recreation fee areas are established 

under their respective jurisdictions. In 

accordance with BLM policy, the 

Salmon Field Office Recreation Fee 

Sites Business Plan explains the fee 

collection process and how fees will be 

used at this site. The BLM Idaho 

Resource Advisory Council, functioning 

as a Recreation Resource Advisory 

Committee, reviewed and concurred 

with the proposal to charge fees at 

Tarpons Roost in May 2024, following 

the FLREA guidelines. Fee amounts will 

be posted on-site and at the BLM 

Salmon Field Office. Copies of the 

business plan will be available at the 

BLM Salmon Field Office and BLM 

Idaho Falls District Office as listed in 

the ADDRESSES section. Any future 

adjustments in the fee amount will be 

made following the Salmon Field Office 

Recreation Fee Sites Business Plan and 

after consultation with the BLM Idaho 

Resource Advisory Council and other 

public notice. 

Tarpons Roost was analyzed and 

approved in the 2018 Continental 

Divide Trail Cabin Environmental 

Assessment (DOI–BLM–ID–I040–2012– 

0034–EA) and subsequent Record of 

Decision, available at https://

eplanning.blm.gov/eplanning-ui/ 

project/33052/510. Recreation use fees 

would be consistent with other 

established fee sites in the area managed 

by the BLM and other Federal and State 

land management agencies.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This 

notice is published as part of the 

National Park Service’s administrative 

responsibilities under NAGPRA. The 

determinations in this notice are the 

sole responsibility of the Prescott 

National Forest, and additional 

information on the associated funerary 

object in this notice, including the 

results of consultation, can be found in 

the related records. The National Park 

Service is not responsible for the 

identifications in this notice. 

Abstract of Information Available 

Based on the information available, 

one associated funerary object has been 

reasonably identified. A ceramic jar and 

human remains were discovered 

eroding out of an arroyo by a hiker near 

the Salt Mine Road (Verde Ranger 

District, Yavapai County, Arizona) on 

January 10, 2020. The jar was also 

removed that same day. The jar has been 

classified as Verde Brown plainware 

(Southern Sinagua) and is 20–25cm in 

diameter and approximately 20cm in 

height. The jar was found fractured, 

with about half of its entirety present. 

The human remains were stabilized in 

place in January 2020 and again in July 

2021. The discovery location was 

assigned a site number, AR–03–09–05– 

933, and is being monitored by PNF 

archaeologists. The jar is currently 

secured in a safe location away from 

public view at the Verde Valley 

Archaeological Center, Camp Verde, 

Arizona. 

Determinations 

The Prescott National Forest has 

determined that: 

• The one object described in this 

notice is reasonably believed to have 

been placed intentionally with or near 

individual human remains at the time of 

death or later as part of the death rite 

or ceremony. 

• The Hopi Tribe of Arizona has 

priority for disposition of the associated 

funerary object described in this notice.
