Planning / NEPA

Using the principles in the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 (FLPMA) as our 'multiple use' handbook, we create what can be called “balanced” management of public land and its resources. This is based on the principles of multiple use and sustained yield which means--land managers are required to take into account the long-term needs of present and future generations as they make important decisions in the management of renewable and nonrenewable resources, such as recreation, timber, minerals, watershed, fish, wildlife, rangeland, scientific and historical values.

As a neighbor to private and state landowners, in countless communities, we strive to bring local governments, tribes, conservation organizations, industry and the public together in collaborative planning efforts to identify the many different uses of these lands. 
 
These land use plans are fundamental to the longevity, productivity, and enjoyment of our public lands. There are several planning efforts under way across the State and we encourage your participation. This is not an exhaustive list. If you are looking for a planning document that is not on this list, please contact the field office in that area.
