Land Management Plan

The Apache-Sitgreaves National Forests (A-S NFs) encompass two million acres of magnificent mountain country in east-central Arizona (vicinity map, Appendix A). Day to day management of these forests is guided by the A-S NFs Land Management Plan (LMP) and associated monitoring. The Forest Plan Monitoring and Evaluation Report for Fiscal Year 2004 (linked to this letter), provides LMP monitoring information and addresses monitoring questions as identified in the Apache-Sitgreaves Monitoring Action Plan (MAP). These documents are based on requirements of the National Forest Management Act (NFMA) and Forest Service Manual (FSM) guidance. Based on this current report, I have determined that the A-S NFs Land Management Plan remains sufficient to guide the A-S NFs plan implementation activities over the next fiscal year. A Plan amendment is under development for restricting cross country travel by wheeled motorized vehicles. Other Plan amendments may be needed and will be developed as appropriate and implemented after appropriate analysis, public participation, notice, and comment.
