(ROD) for the Upper Deschutes RMP

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Upper 

Deschutes RMP/ROD was developed 

with broad public participation through 

a four-year collaborative planning 

process. This RMP/ROD addresses 

management of approximately 400,000 

acres of public land in Central Oregon. 

The Upper Deschutes RMP/ROD is 

designed to achieve or maintain desired 

future conditions developed through the 

planning process. It includes a series of 

management actions to meet the desired 

resource conditions for upland and 

riparian vegetation, wildlife habitats, 

cultural and visual resources, livestock 

grazing, special forest products, 

minerals and mineral materials, military 

use, recreation, land classifications and 

rights-of-way, and travel management. 

With one exception, the approved 

Upper Deschutes RMP is essentially the 

same as Alternative 7 in the Proposed 

Upper Deschutes RMP and Final EIS, 

published in January 2005. The BLM 

received 16 protests on the Proposed 

Upper Deschutes RMP and Final EIS. In 

response to protests, a decision was 

made to allow ‘‘geocaching’’ activities 

within Wilderness Study Areas under 

specific monitoring and mitigation 

measures described in the RMP.
