08 Analysis 

AGENCY: Forest Service, USDA.

SUMMARY: The Forest Service proposes 

to revise Rangeland Allotment 

Management Plans (RAMP) for ten

of the Black Hills National Forest and 

analyze continuation of grazing within 

the constraints of the Revised Black

Management Plan, as amended (BHNF 

LRMP). 

DATES: Comments concerning the scope 

of the analysis must be received by

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Purpose and Need for Action 

The purpose of the project is to 

authorize livestock grazing in an 

environmentally acceptable manner. 

The EIS will determine current 

conditions, analyze environmental 

consequences of grazing management 

actions on those conditions, and assist 

the decision maker in selecting 

management/monitoring strategies 

consistent with meeting desired 

conditions in the BHNF LRMP, 

including Goals 1, 2 and 3. The need for 

the action is to revise allotment 

management plans, reverse any existing 

undesirable conditions, and ensure that 

authorized uses and associated 

management activities move them 

towards desired BHNF LRMP 

conditions. There is also a need to 

respond to requests for grazing permits 

on lands not currently being grazed. 

Proposed Action 

The Northern Hills and Bearlodge 

Ranger Districts propose to implement 

best management practices and 

activities with adaptive management 

and monitoring strategies to allow 

livestock grazing consistent with Forest 

Plan desired conditions, standards and 

guidelines. 

Possible Alternatives 

The Current Management Alternative 

would not change current permitted 

livestock grazing. The No Grazing 

Alternative would eliminate any 

livestock grazing on the project area. 

Responsible Official 

The Responsible Official for the 

allotments on the Bearlodge Ranger 

District is Steve Kozel, District Ranger, 

Black Hills National Forest, Bearlodge 

Ranger District, 121 S. 21st Street, 

Sundance, Wyoming 82729. The 

Responsible Official for the allotments 

on the Northern Hills Ranger District is 

Rhonda O’Byrne, District Ranger, Black 

Hills National Forest, Northern Hills 

Ranger District, 2014 N. Main St., 

Spearfish, South Dakota 57783. 

Nature of Decision To Be Made 

The decision to be made is whether to 

continue to permit livestock grazing on 

all, part, or none of these allotments 

and, if so, under what terms and
