Description

This Draft Resource Management Plan Amendment and Environmental Impact Statement (RMPA/EIS) has been prepared to address recreational target shooting on Bureau of Land Management (BLM) administered lands within the boundaries of Sonoran Desert National Monument (SDNM). The decisions related to management of recreational target shooting in the 2012 SDNM Resource Management Plan (RMP)/Final EIS and Record of Decision (ROD) were deemed inadequate, vacated, and remanded back to the BLM for reconsideration by a March 27, 2015, US District Court - District of Arizona ruling. Through this RMPA/EIS, the BLM will address areas available for recreational target shooting, if any, and associated management prescriptions, public safety concerns, cultural and natural resource protection, and potential impacts on Monument objects. The decision area encompasses 486,400 surface acres of public lands and 461,000 acres of subsurface land and spans portions of Maricopa and Pinal Counties.
