The issues anticipated to be addressed by this Plan Amendment/EA
include safety, resource protection, and recreational conflict.
The proposed planning criteria include:
1. All proposed actions and alternatives considered must comply
with current laws and Federal Regulations.
2. The resource allocations of proposed actions will be made in
accordance with the principles of ``multiple use'' as defined in the
Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 (FLPMA), Sec. 103(c).
3. The Proposed Plan Amendment will consider the relative scarcity
of the values invovled and the availability of alternative means and
sites for realization of those values.
4. This planning process will provide for public involvement
including early notice and frequent opportunity for citizens and
interested groups and others to participate in and comment on the
preparation of plans and related guidance.
