supplementary information: In April 1994 Reclamation completed a RMP
and Environmental Assessment/Finding of No Significant Impact for
approximately 26,190 acres of land and 12,740 acres of water surface at
Owyhee Reservoir in southeastern Oregon. The RMP was developed through
extensive public involvement and interagency consultation and
coordination. To meet the goal of providing appropriate and safe access
to Reclamation lands consistent with Reclamation's Off Road Vehicle use
regulations in 43 CFR part 420, a Travel Management Plan was
incorporated into the RMP.
The Travel Management Plan designates all Reclamation lands at
Owyhee Reservoir closed to motorized travel except for those roads and
areas specifically designated as ``open'' for such use. Areas and roads
designated as ``open'' are shown on Reclamation's Owyhee Reservoir RMP
Travel Management Plan map in the RMP and available separately at the
addresses above. This designation of ``open'' lands at Owyhee reservoir
supersedes the Notice of Off-Road Vehicle Use published in 39 FR 46951,
Aug. 9, 1979.
Dated: May 19, 1995.
