The BLM and BIA will be guests on a radio show on KDND radio (960 AM) from 1 to 4 p.m. Thursday. Listeners will hear project information and can call in to (505) 325-1996 and ask questions.
The draft plan analyzes resource management concerns for lands in San Juan, Rio Arriba, McKinley and Sandoval counties, including areas surrounding the Chaco Culture National Historical Park. It provides a unified document that resource managers can use for land-use management purposes. This planning effort will update management decisions such as oil and gas development, lands and realty, lands with wilderness characteristics and vegetation.
To register, visit rb.gy/zrozzi.
