AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management; Interior.

ACTION: Notification of resource management planning schedule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Federal Land Policy and Management Act (FLPMA) requires 
the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) to prepare land use plans to 
provide management direction for the public lands. Since 1984, the BLM 
has completed 108 Resource Management Plans (RMP); 56 earlier and 
smaller Management Framework Plans (MFP) are still in place. These 
plans are periodically evaluated, and amended or revised to respond to 
new circumstances or proposals. Some of the MFPs are replaced by new 
RMPs when the decisions in the MFPs are no longer valid and it is not 
feasible to update the decisions through the amendment process.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Planning Regulations at 43 CFR 1610.2(b) 
require the BLM to annually publish a planning schedule identifying 
plan amendments and new RMPs in progress or planned over the next three 
years. Six RMPs are scheduled to be completed in fiscal year 1999: Las 
Vegas, NV [signed in October 1998]; Dixie, UT; Challis, ID; Southeast 
Oregon; Newcastle, WY; and the Management Plan for the Grand Staircase-
Escalante National Monument, UT. The Owyhee, ID is scheduled for fiscal 
year 2000.
    Two plans will start this year and be completed in fiscal year 
2001: the Lakeview (OR) RMP will be done jointly with the Forest 
Service Management Plans for the Fremont and Winema National Forests. 
The Snake River (WY) RMP is the smallest ever, just 2,000 acres, 
covering islands and other isolated lands in Teton County. The 8 new 
RMPs currently in progress or planned will replace 12 existing MFPs. 
Since no schedule was published last year, we have included fiscal year 
1998 actions, including completing the Roswell, Grass Creek and Green 
River RMPs.
    Fifty-four land use plan amendments are in progress or planned for 
fiscal year 1999, excluding the Interior Columbia Basin Ecosystem 
Management Project. This Project which is scheduled for completion in 
fiscal year 2000 will be used to amend an additional 43 RMPs and MFPs. 
New Mexico BLM will amend all 10 of its RMPs in fiscal year 1999 to 
incorporate Statewide Standards and Guides. Eastern States will do 
three Planning Analyses in fiscal year 1999. For the first time, the 
Planning Schedule includes formal evaluations of RMPs and MFPs; 16 are 
scheduled for fiscal year 1999.
    The public is invited to comment on the planning schedule. Comments 
will be considered in refining priorities for the completion of new 
RMPs and land use plan amendments. Public notice and opportunity for 
participation are encouraged throughout the planning process, as 
required by 43 CFR 1610.2(f). The planning process begins with the 
publication of a Notice of Intent to initiate a new RMP or plan

amendment. Public input is particularly helpful during the scoping 
process and during the review of draft planning documents.

DATES: Comments on the schedule will be accepted until February 8, 
1999.

ADDRESSES: Comments should be sent to the Bureau of Land Management, 
Attention: Ms. Brenda Williams, 1849 C Street NW (LS-1075), Washington, 
DC 20240.
