The Southern Washoe County Urban Interface Plan Amendment amends a portion of the Lahontan Resource Management Plan (RMP). The purpose is to provide for improved management of public lands in the Reno and Sparks metropolitan area. The amendment identifies areas where public lands will be retained in ownership by the people of the United States; areas where public lands are available for acquisition by State or local agencies or the private sector; areas appropriate for acquisition by the BLM; and how public lands will be managed. The Land Use Master Plans of Reno, Sparks, and Washoe County, and the Washoe County Regional Open Space Plan define and delineate open space in southern Washoe County. Open Space in Washoe County is defined as: Undeveloped land that encompasses natural, scenic, cultural, and recreational resources important to the local quality-of-life. A large portion of the land described in the above plans as being consistent with open space values are public lands managed by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), Carson City Field Office. All other uses of public land, not addressed in the plan amendment, will continue to be managed as provided for in the existing Lahontan RMP. Location: The planning area includes approximately 166,550 acres of public lands administered by the BLM in the urban interface of Southern Washoe County. The planning area is bounded by Bedell Flat to the north, Pyramid Lake Indian Reservation to the northeast, the Pah Rah Mountain Range and Storey County to the east and southeast, the State of California to the west, and Carson City to the south, and includes the communities of Reno and Sparks, Nevada. Copies of the Southern Washoe County Urban Interface Plan Amendment with maps are available from the following BLM office: BLM-Carson City Field Office, 5665 Morgan Mill Road, Carson City, Nevada 89701. Public Participation: This RMP Amendment was developed through a joint planning process with Washoe County. Public scoping was initiated with a notice published in the Federal Register in July 1998. Notice of public open houses and an invitation for public comment were published in local newspapers and sent to known interested parties, government entities, and the Nevada State Clearinghouse. This was followed by two BLM/Washoe County joint public open houses held at the BLM Nevada State Office and the Washoe County Commissioner's Chambers in Reno in September and October 1998. Representatives from BLM and Washoe County also presented the proposed plan amendment to the following eight Washoe County Citizen Advisory Boards: Spanish Springs, Galena/ Steamboat, Sun Valley, North Valleys, Southeast Truckee Meadows, Cold Springs, East Washoe Valley, and Warm Springs. In addition, the proposal was presented to the following: Washoe County Planning Commission, Washoe County Parks Commission, Sparks Citizen Advisory Committee, Reno Southeast Neighborhood Advisory Board, Washoe Storey Conservation District, and the Nevada Division of Minerals. A Notice of Availability and Public Meeting for the Proposed Southern Washoe County Urban Interface Plan Amendment and Environmental Assessment, Proposed Designation of Three Areas of Critical Environmental Concern, and Proposed Withdrawal of Public Land; Washoe County, Nevada was published in the Federal Register on July 24, 2000. This published notice initiated the 60-day comment period and Governors Consistency Review that ended on September 22, 2000. The notice also was published in local newspapers and the proposed plan amendment was sent to 532 interested parties, government entities, and the Nevada State Clearinghouse. A summary of comments from the 86 comment letters received and how these comments are addressed is found in Appendix A of the plan. A public open house was held at the BLM Nevada State Office in Reno on August 24, 2000, and was attended by 27 individuals. Representatives from BLM and Washoe County presented the proposed plan amendment to the following Washoe County Citizen Advisory Boards: Spanish Springs, Galena/Steamboat, Sun Valley, North Valleys, Southeast Truckee Meadows, Cold Springs, East Washoe Valley, and Warm Springs.
