SUMMARY: The Bureau of land Management (BLM) is extending the
previously announced public comment period for the Draft Roswell
Resource Management Plan/Environmental Impact Statement (RMP/EIS) and
the Draft Carlsbad Resource Management Plan Amendment/Environmental

been combined in a single document. The 90-day public comment period

Because of the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays, and the busy time
at year's end, the public comment period is extended and will end March
1, 1995. This will give reviewers extra time to formulate and submit
comments on the document.
DATES: Written comments on the Draft Roswell RMP/EIS and the Draft
Carlsbad RMPA/EIS will be accepted until March 1, 1995. Public hearings
on the drafts will be held on:

Person Auditorium on the New Mexico Military Institute campus, Roswell,
New Mexico; and,
Jan. 11, 1995, from 1:00 to 5:00 p.m. and 7:00 to 9:00 p.m., at the
BLM's Carlsbad Resource Area office, 620 East Greens, Carlsbad, New
Mexico.
Oral and written testimony will be accepted at the hearings. Oral
comments will be limited to five minutes and should be accompanied with
written text, if possible.
In addition to the public hearings, three open houses are scheduled
for:
Jan. 3, 1995, from 1:00 to 5:00 p.m. and 6:00 to 8:00 p.m., at the
