Programmatic Environmental Impact Statement for the Approval of
Herbicide Active Ingredients for Use on Public Lands
AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management, Interior.
ACTION: Notice of availability.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) announces the availability
of the Record of Decision (ROD) for the Final Environmental Impact
Statement (EIS) for the Approval of Herbicide Active Ingredients for
Use on Public Lands. The ROD constitutes the decision of the BLM.
DATES: The Assistant Director for Resources and Planning signed the ROD
on 7/1/2024.
ADDRESSES: The ROD is available via the internet at <a href="https://go.usa.gov/xtk6a">https://go.usa.gov/xtk6a</a>.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This document provides notice that the BLM
has published a ROD for a final programmatic EIS and approved seven
additional herbicide active ingredients for use in vegetation
treatments on BLM-managed public lands.
Purpose and Need for the Proposed Action
The BLM's purpose and need is to improve the effectiveness of its
invasive plant management efforts by allowing the use of Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA)-registered active ingredients not currently
authorized for use on BLM public lands. Approving additional active
ingredients diversifies the BLM's herbicide treatment options and helps
meet the purposes that were first identified in the 2007 and 2016
programmatic EISs related to vegetation treatments, which are to make
herbicides available for vegetation treatment on public lands and to
describe the stipulations that apply to their use.
Decision
The BLM has approved seven additional herbicide active ingredients,
including aminocyclopyrachlor, clethodim, fluozifop-p-butyl,
flumioxazin, imazamox, indaziflam, and oryzalin, for use in vegetation
treatments on public lands. These active ingredients are registered by
the EPA. In making this decision, the BLM adopted and relied on Human
Health and Ecological Risk Assessments prepared by the U.S. Forest
Service.
