The planning area includes portions of 10 Western States with
greater sage-grouse (GRSG) habitat: California, Colorado, Idaho,
Montana, Nevada, North Dakota, Oregon, South Dakota, Utah, and Wyoming,
and encompasses nearly 121 million acres of BLM-administered public
lands. Because this effort is focused on GRSG habitat management,
decisions resulting from this amendment effort could affect up to 69
million acres of BLM-administered lands associated with the applicable
GRSG habitat management areas. No decisions are being made on National
Forest System lands or the underlying Federal mineral estate as part of
this process.
The 2015 GRSG RMPA amended or revised RMPs in the planning area to
provide for GRSG conservation on public lands. In the 2019 GRSG RMPAs,
the BLM amended some of the 2015 GRSG plan decisions in the States of
California, Colorado, Idaho, Nevada, Oregon, Utah, and Wyoming. On
October 16, 2019, the United States District Court for the District of
Idaho preliminarily enjoined the BLM from implementing the 2019 GRSG
RMPAs (Case No. 1:16-CV-83-BLW).
The amount and condition of GRSG habitat supports the GRSG
populations that State wildlife agencies manage. Recent data suggests a
continued long-term decline in sagebrush habitats and GRSG populations
across the species range. Habitat and population trends vary across the
range, with wildfire being a larger problem in the Great Basin States
and human development being the primary issue in the Rocky Mountain
States. Regardless of the cause, continued habitat loss results in
smaller patches available for GRSG use, which can concentrate impacts
to birds. Approximately half the remaining GRSG habitat is managed by
the BLM. The BLM is considering specific changes to some GRSG RMP
decisions across the species range to improve conservation and
management of GRSG habitats consistent with the BLM's sensitive species
policy and in coordination with State wildlife agencies.
On November 22, 2021, the BLM published a notice of intent in the
Federal Register to initiate the public scoping period for this
planning effort (86 FR 66331). The BLM hosted two virtual public
scoping meetings aimed at providing information on the planning effort,
identifying the scope of issues to be addressed in the RMPA, gathering
input to assist in formulating a reasonable range of alternatives, and
soliciting information on potential ACECs to consider. The resource
concerns identified during the scoping process included GRSG habitat,
mineral development, renewable energy development, livestock grazing
management, wild horses and burros, ACECs, lands and realty, air
resources, soil resources, and social and economic conditions.
Purpose and Need
The BLM's GRSG habitat conservation efforts rely on implementing
management actions that avoid, minimize, or, if necessary, compensate
for land uses and other threats that reduce the amount and quality of
GRSG habitat. Many actions from the 2015 and 2019 RMPAs already
accomplish this. As a result, the BLM's purpose and need is to consider
amending RMPs to address a sub-set of GRSG management actions on BLM-
administered lands to respond to changing land uses in GRSG habitats,
improve the efficiency and effectiveness of GRSG management, provide
for consistent conservation across state lines, and provide the BLM
with locally relevant decisions that accord with range-wide GRSG
conservation goals. To this end, the BLM is focusing on the following
rangewide management actions:
<bullet> Clarify the GRSG RMP goal;
<bullet> GRSG habitat management area alignment (i.e., to
incorporate new science and improve alignment along
[[Page 18965]]
state boundaries) and the major land use allocations therein, including
criteria-based management for non-habitat within the habitat management
areas;
<bullet> Mitigation;
<bullet> GRSG habitat objectives;
<bullet> Disturbance cap;
<bullet> Fluid mineral development and leasing objective;
<bullet> Fluid mineral leasing waivers, exceptions, and
modifications;
<bullet> Renewable energy development and associated transmission;
<bullet> Minimizing threats from predation;
<bullet> Livestock grazing;
<bullet> Wild horse and burro management;
<bullet> Areas of Critical Environmental Concern; and
<bullet> Adaptive Management.
Some management concerns are localized to circumstances in
individual States and are influenced by the ecological diversity of the
sagebrush system. As such, the purpose of this planning effort also
includes amending specific RMP management actions associated with
State-specific circumstances to improve GRSG habitat conservation.
Changes to RMPs may be needed to:
<bullet> Address the continued GRSG habitat losses that are
contributing to declines in GRSG populations;
<bullet> Ensure habitat management areas and associated management
incorporate recent relevant science to prioritize management where it
will provide conservation benefit (including providing for durable
planning decisions when considering the effects of climate change);
<bullet> Provide continuity in managing GRSG habitats based on
biological information versus political boundaries, where appropriate,
while allowing for management flexibility to address different
strategies in identifying habitat management areas with state agencies,
as well as local habitat variability; and
<bullet> Refine and clarify other aspects of RMPs.
Alternatives Including the Preferred Alternative
The BLM has analyzed six alternatives in detail, including the no
action alternative.
Alternative 1 includes the applicable elements of the 2015 GRSG
amendment efforts related to the management actions noted in the
purpose and need. Under Alternative 1 the BLM would re-adopt the
applicable GRSG habitat management area boundaries and the associated
management. The existing language in the plans from the 2019 effort
would revert to that contained in the 2015 amendments (as maintained).
Due to the U.S. District Court of Idaho's preliminary injunction
preventing implementation of the 2019 amendments, this alternative
reflects how the BLM is currently managing GRSG habitat on public
lands. There is variability across the different States regarding
approaches for the management actions mentioned in the purpose. While
the States have similar concepts in their RMPs (e.g., disturbance cap,
adaptive management, livestock grazing), the application details vary.
The Sagebrush Focal Areas (SFA) identified in the 2015 RMPA would
continue under this Alternative.
Alternative 2 is the applicable RMP goals, objectives, and
management decisions from the 2019 GRSG amendment efforts. For RMPs in
Montana and North and South Dakota, Alternative 2 is the same as
Alternative 1 because those RMPs were not amended in 2019. Because this
alternative reflects the management currently in the BLM's approved
RMPs it is the No-Action Alternative. The U.S. District Court for the
District of Idaho has issued a preliminary injunction, preventing the
BLM from implementing the 2019 amendments but not vacating them or
their Records of Decision. As such, Alternative 2 represents the actual
language in the BLM's RMPs and are the words in the existing plan that
the BLM would be amending. While major land uses are similar to
Alternative 1, the differences between the States for specific
management concepts increased. For example, there is more diversity
between the States regarding mitigation (required vs. voluntary, net
gain vs. no net loss), as well as the potential to use compensatory
mitigation instead of avoiding disturbances, and increased flexibility
to consider exceptions based on local information. Under Alternative 2,
the SFAs would be removed in all States except Montana and Oregon.
It is important to note that the alternatives are limited to just
those goals, objectives, or decisions associated with the list of
rangewide management actions in the purpose above, as well as those
associated with applicable State-specific circumstances. Any other
goal, objective, or decision from the 2015 or 2019 RMPAs are not being
considered for amendment and would remain in the plans regardless of
the decision ultimately made in this effort.
Alternative 3 provides the greatest measures to protect and
preserve GRSG and its habitat. Alternative 3 would update the habitat
management area boundaries based on new information and science,
however all habitat management areas would be managed as priority
habitat management area (PHMA), with general, important, or other
habitat management areas under other alternatives being managed as
PHMA. The BLM would close PHMA to new fluid mineral leasing, saleable
minerals/mineral materials permits, and nonenergy leasable minerals
leasing. PHMA would be recommended for withdrawal from location and
entry under the Mining Law of 1872 and would be unavailable for
livestock grazing. PHMA would also be right-of-way exclusion area. In
addition, Alternative 3 would include designation of 11,139,472 acres
of PHMA as ACECs specific to the management of GRSG, with management
described below. No areas would be identified as an SFA.
Alternative 4 adjusts GRSG habitat management areas based on new
information and science available since the previous efforts. Many of
the management actions to avoid or minimize impacts would be similar
Alternatives 1 and 2, but the habitat management areas where they are
applied would be updated to reflect the new science. One difference is
in Wyoming, where under Alternative 4, all PHMA would be managed with
no surface occupancy requirements for new oil and gas leases. In
addition, management associated with some of the major minimization
measures (e.g., disturbance cap, adaptive management) would be adjusted
to address cross-boundary coordination of shared populations, range-
wide biological and managerial concerns based on monitoring, and
experience gained from implementing management for GRSG since 2015.
Alternative 4 allows compensatory mitigation to be used under specific
conditions in considering the potential for exceptions, but would
require functional habitat to be in place prior to granting the
exception. Areas previously identified as an SFA are managed as PHMA.
The primary difference between management of an SFA in the 2015 Plans
and PHMAs in this planning effort is that PHMA would not include a
recommendation for withdrawal or prioritization strategies.
Alternative 5 considers alignments of habitat management areas and
associated management to balance GRSG conservation with public land
uses. If State governments updated the GRSG habitat management area
boundaries in their State plans, those boundaries are considered on
public lands in Alternative 5. Because of this, the habitat management
areas are similar to, but refined from, Alternative 4, and restrictions
would generally be similar to Alternative 4, except for oil and gas in
Wyoming which is similar to Alternative 2. and some additional
[[Page 18966]]
flexibilities provided for development of gravel pits for counties to
use in maintaining local roads. In general, Alternative 5 considered
options with fewer restrictions on resource uses and provided more
opportunities for considering compensatory mitigation to reduce impacts
on GRSG and its habitat. Areas previously identified as an SFA are
managed as PHMA. The primary difference between management of an SFA in
the 2015 Plans and PHMAs in this planning effort is that PHMA would not
include a recommendation for withdrawal or prioritization strategies.
Alternative 6 is based on Alternative 5, with all the habitat
management areas and associated management being the same as described
for Alternative 5, but with the addition of ACECs. While Alternative 6
would include designation of 11,139,472 acres of PHMA as ACECs specific
to the management of GRSG (same as Alternative 3), the management
(described below) would be less restrictive than that considered in
Alternative 3, though generally more restrictive than the rest of
Alternative 6 PHMA.
The BLM has identified Alternative 5 as the preferred alternative.
Alternative 5 provides a mix of conservation that avoids and minimizes
impacts to GRSG habitat while providing local managers the ability to
consider site-specific conditions in applying GRSG habitat
conservation.
Mitigation
The alternatives consider a variety of approaches to mitigation for
GRSG, all focused on avoiding, minimizing, or compensating for impacts.
For Alternative 1, mitigation in most States is required to achieve a
net conservation gain for surface disturbances in PHMA. Under
Alternative 2, most States adopted a no net loss requirement, but
provided that compensatory mitigation would be voluntary. Under
Alternatives 3, 4, 5, and 6, mitigation would be required to achieve a
no net loss standard in PHMA. However, under Alternative 3, the primary
approach would be avoiding new disturbances. Alternative 4, 5, and 6
would provide a broader balance by avoiding major disturbances, but
providing for some land uses where they would minimize their impact (in
location and/or intensity) and compensate for residual impacts to
achieve no net loss of habitat value--considering both direct and
indirect impacts. In achieving the no net loss standard, the BLM would
work with the States to apply the tools that work best in those areas
to achieve the desired mitigation outcome.
ACECs
Consistent with land use planning regulations at 43 CFR 1610.7-
2(b), the BLM is announcing the opening of a 60-day comment period on
the ACECs analyzed in the EIS. Comments may be submitted using any of
the methods listed in the ADDRESSES section earlier.
There are no new proposed ACECs included in the preferred
alternative. Existing and nominated ACECs with relevant and important
values unrelated to GRSG habitat are outside the scope of the purpose
and need. Existing ACECs with relevant and important values related to
GRSG are unchanged by this effort, with the exception of 15 key
Research Natural Areas (RNAs) in Oregon. RNAs are a type of ACEC. This
effort does not change the key RNA boundaries but does consider
alternatives to availability for livestock grazing. Of the 60,362 acres
across the 15 key RNAs in Oregon, the alternatives consider the
following acreage as unavailable for livestock grazing: Alternative 1:
35,803, Alternative 2: 13,872, Alternative 3: 59,532, Alternative 4:
36,416, Alternative 5: 18,680, Alternative 6: 18,680.
The preferred alternative would not propose the following potential
ACECs with GRSG relevant and important values for designation: Case
Flats (Colorado), Triangle (Idaho), Owyhee-Shoshone Basin (Idaho),
Camas-Laidlaw (Idaho), Big Desert (Idaho), Antelope Valley (Idaho),
Mountain Valley Complex (Idaho), Upper Snake Complex (Idaho), Carter
Crook GRSG Connectivity (Montana), South Valley Phillips GRSG Habitat
(Montana), Warm Springs (Nevada), Montana Mountains (Nevada), Owyhee
West (Nevada), Owyhee East (Nevada), North Fork Oneil (Nevada), South
Fork Dixie Flats (Nevada), Butte Long Valley (Nevada), Eureka North and
South (Nevada), Grass-Kobeh Valley (Nevada), Monitor Valley (Nevada),
Reese River (Nevada), Hayes Canyon (Nevada), Utah and Idaho Boarder
Connectivity (Nevada), Buffalo Skedaddle (California), Vya/Massacre
(California), Rich GRSG Habitat (Utah), Box Elder GRSG Habitat (Utah),
Little Sandy (Wyoming), Carter-Cook GRSG Connectivity (Wyoming),
Sagebrush Focal Areas in South-Central and Southwestern Wyoming
(Wyoming), Greater South Pass and Upper Green River Basin GRSG
(Wyoming). These areas (11,139,472 acres) would be designated ACECs
under Alternatives 3 and 6. Under Alternative 3 they would be managed
as closed to new fluid mineral leasing, closed to saleable mineral
disposal, closed to non-energy mineral leasing, excluded for major
rights-of-way, excluded for wind and solar development, and recommended
for withdrawal from mineral location. Under Alternative 6, they would
be available for new fluid mineral leasing with no surface occupancy
allowed, closed to non-energy mineral leasing, closed to saleable
minerals except for free-use pits (for local road maintenance), not
recommended for withdrawal from mineral location, excluded to major
rights-of-way unless located in RMP designated corridors, and excluded
from wind and solar development, as well as not allowing exceptions to
the disturbance cap otherwise available in PHMA under Alternative 6.
Schedule for the Decision-Making Process
The BLM will provide additional opportunities for public
participation consistent with the NEPA and land use planning processes,
including a 30-day public protest period and a 60-day Governor's
consistency review on the Proposed RMPA. The Proposed RMPA/Final EIS is
anticipated to be available for public protest in the fall of 2024 with
an Approved RMPA and Record of Decision in winter 2024.
The BLM will hold two virtual public meetings and 11 in-person
public meetings associated throughout the planning area. The specific
dates and locations of these meetings will be announced at least 15
days in advance through the ePlanning page (see ADDRESSES) and media
releases.
The BLM will continue to consult with Indian Tribal Nations on a
government-to-government basis in accordance with Executive Order
13175, BLM MS 1780, and other Departmental policies. Tribal concerns,
including impacts on Indian trust assets and potential impacts to
cultural resources, will be given due consideration. Consultation will
continue on an induvial basis with individual Tribes.
Comments on the Draft EIS would be most helpful if associated with
the level of decision making presented in the alternatives. As
described in 43 CFR 1601.0-5(n), an RMP is not a final implementation
decision on actions that require further specific plans, process steps,
or decisions under specific provisions of law and regulations.
Additional decision making and analyses will occur when considering
individual project authorizations, where local conditions and
management will be taken into account.
Before including your address, phone number, email address, or
other personal identifying information in your comment, you should be
aware that
[[Page 18967]]
your entire comment--including your personal identifying information--
may be made publicly available at any time. While you can ask us in
your comment to withhold your personal identifying information from
public review, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to do so.
