The Bureau of Land Management has begun the process of revising a 1985 plan that directs the management of nearly 800,000 acres of public land in Campbell, Johnson, and Sheridan counties. These lands are adjacent to the Bighorn National Forest. An integral part of developing the new plan is public involvement which includes hunters and recreational shooters who want to secure their future on these lands.
For this first phase of the planning process, the agency is accepting public comments until Monday, January 5, 2009. You may email comments to [email protected] or send them by U.S. Mail to 1425 Fort Street, Buffalo, WY 82834. For more information, you may contact Linda Slone, the Project Manager, at 307-261-7520 or visit the planning website at: http://www.blm.gov/wy/st/en/programs/Planning/rmps/buffalo.html.
If continued hunting and recreational shooting opportunities are important to you on these public lands, it is imperative that you become involved in the planning process.
