Notice of Availability of Travel Map, Challis Field Office

AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management, Interior.

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) announces the availability 
of a map depicting existing roads, vehicle ways, and trails on public 
lands managed by the BLM Challis Field Office. The map implements the 
Challis Resource Management Plan (RMP, 1999) limiting vehicle travel to 
existing roads, ways, and trails. Additionally, the production of this 
map is the first step in the process of implementing a Comprehensive 
Travel Management Plan, also required by the Challis RMP.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The BLM Challis Field Office manages nearly 
800,000 acres of public lands, principally in Custer County, Idaho. The 
Challis Field Office completed its RMP in 1999, which limited vehicle 
travel to existing roads, ways, and trails, and recommended that the 
Field Office complete a Comprehensive Travel Management Plan to 
administer all aspects of motorized and non-motorized travel in the 
field office through a system of designated routes. The publication of 
a map showing existing roads, vehicle ways, and trails is the first 
step in completing the Comprehensive Travel Management Plan.
    Any travel off these designated routes would be considered to be 
travel in a closed area and would be a violation of 43 CFR 8341.1(c).
    No decision is required for the publication of the map, but the map 
will help implement the RMP's Record of Decision. BLM will be seeking 
further public input regarding the present disposition and future 
development of the existing roads and trails through the course of 
developing the Comprehensive Travel Management Plan.

ADDRESSES: Copies of the map are available for the public by contacting 
the BLM Challis Field Office, 801 Blue
