CHEYENNE, WYOMING – To ensure the public and BLM’s state and local partners have sufficient time to review the Final Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) and proposed Resource Management Plan Amendments (RMPA) addressing Greater Sage-Grouse, BLM Wyoming is extending the protest period for the Final EIS/RMPA until January 23, 2019. In working with the State of Wyoming during consistency review the BLM discovered that incorrect versions of appendices A, B and C were included with the Final EIS and has now included the correct versions of these appendices. These changes do not substantially change the alternatives in the RMPA or Final EIS. An Errata Sheet summarizing the changes to the appendices and updated versions of appendices A, B and C are available on the BLM’s ePlanning project webpage at https://goo.gl/22jKE2. Electronic protests can also be submitted on that webpage.
If submitting a protest in hard copy, it must be mailed to one of the following addresses: U.S. Postal Service Mail: BLM Director (210) Attention: Protest Coordinator WO-210, P.O Box 71383 Washington, D.C. 20024-1383
Overnight Delivery: BLM Director (210) Attention: Protest Coordinator, WO-210, 20 M Street SE, Room 2134LM Washington, D.C. 20003
Protests submitted electronically by any means other than the ePlanning project website will be invalid unless a protest is also submitted in hard copy. Protests submitted by fax will also be invalid unless also submitted either through ePlanning project website protest section or in hard copy.
