Notice of Termination of the Recreation Area Management Plan, a 
Comprehensive Transportation and Travel Management Plan for the Las 
Vegas Field Office, NV and Associated Environmental Impact Statement

AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management, Interior.

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Las Vegas Field Office, 
Las Vegas, Nevada, intends to terminate the process for preparing a 
Recreation Area Management Plan (RAMP), Comprehensive Transportation 
and Travel Management (CTTM) Plan, and associated Environmental Impact 
Statement (EIS) for the Las Vegas Field Office.

for the deaf (TDD) may call the Federal Information Relay Services 
(FIRS) at 1-800-877-8339 to contact the above individual during normal

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: A Notice of Intent To Prepare a RAMP, a CTTM 
Plan for the Las Vegas Field Office, Nevada and Associated EIS was 
published in the Federal Register (76 FR 5199) on Friday, January 28, 
2011. The RAMP/CTTM Plan was intended to provide more specific 
management direction for those activities in the planning area based on 
the current Las Vegas and Pahrump Resource Management Plan (RMP). 
However, because the RMP is currently under revision and any changes to 
the plan may significantly change the RAMP/CTTM Plan under development, 
it was decided to delay the RAMP/CTTM PLAN until the Record of Decision 
for the RMP revision was complete. Due to a delay in the anticipated 
completion of the RMP revision, funding for RAMP/CTTM Plan will expire. 
As such, the BLM has decided that the RAMP/CTTM EIS process should be 
terminated.
    Prior to the decision to terminate the process, public scoping 
meetings were held on March 1, 2, 3, 9, and 10, 2011, in Searchlight, 
Mesquite, Las Vegas, Goodsprings, and Overton respectively. Work also 
ensued on a draft EIS, but the draft EIS was neither completed nor 
released.

    Authority: 40 CFR 1501.7; 43 CFR 1610.2 and 8342.1-2.

Mark Slaughter,
Acting Manager, Las Vegas Field Office.
