supplementary information: In April 1994 Reclamation completed a RMP 
and Environmental Assessment/Finding of No Significant Impact for 
approximately 26,190 acres of land and 12,740 acres of water surface at 
Owyhee Reservoir in southeastern Oregon. The RMP was developed through 
extensive public involvement and interagency consultation and 
coordination. To meet the goal of providing appropriate and safe access 
to Reclamation lands consistent with Reclamation's Off Road Vehicle use 
regulations in 43 CFR part 420, a Travel Management Plan was 
incorporated into the RMP.
    The Travel Management Plan designates all Reclamation lands at 
Owyhee Reservoir closed to motorized travel except for those roads and 
areas specifically designated as ``open'' for such use. Areas and roads 
designated as ``open'' are shown on Reclamation's Owyhee Reservoir RMP 
Travel Management Plan map in the RMP and available separately at the 
addresses above. This designation of ``open'' lands at Owyhee reservoir 
supersedes the Notice of Off-Road Vehicle Use published in 39 FR 46951, 
Aug. 9, 1979.

    Dated: May 19, 1995.

Regional Director.
