FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:Ron Kay, Area Manager, Deep Creek 
Resource Area, Bureau of Land Management--138 S. Main, Malad City, 
Idaho, 208-766-4766.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In accordance with Title 43, CFR 8340 and in 
conformance with principles established by the National Environmental 
Policy Act of 1969, the logging roads mentioned above are gated and 
closed to all motorized vehicle traffic. Careful review and analysis in 
cooperation with the Idaho Fish and Game Department, country 
governments, and the public has determined that unrestricted use of 
these roads by motorized vehicle traffic will significantly reduce 
habitat effectiveness for upland and big game in already heavily roaded 
areas. All road closure(s) contained herein serve to mitigate impacts 
resulting from salvage timber sales. Copies of maps indicating these 
road closures are posted at the Deep Creek and Pocatello Resource Area 
Offices of the Idaho Bureau of Land Management. These closures are not 
restricted to authorized Bureau of Land Management personnel and 
permitees or Idaho Fish and Game Department personnel. This closure 
applies to approximately 15 miles of logging road constructed on four 
separate timber salvage sales.

    Dated: January 6, 1994.
Marvin R. Bagley,
Associate District Manager.
