SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Reports were prepared to determine 
whether a plan amendment and/or a supplemental Environmental Impact 
Statement was required. The Reports evaluated new information on 
threatened and endangered species, which has come to light since the 
RMPs were completed and implementation of the biological opinions, that 
resulted from the 1997 formal consultation with the U.S. Fish and 
Wildlife Service on the eight BLM RMPs in New Mexico. The Reports are 
an evaluation of this information as provided by Bureau of Land 
Management (BLM) Planning regulation; 43 CFR 1610.4-9 (Resource 
management planning process--Monitoring and evaluation) and the BLM H-
1790-1, National Environmental Policy Handbook, Chapter III, B 
(Reviewing Existing Environmental Documents).
