Notice of Intent To prepare a Recreation Area Management Plan and an Amendment to the Gunnison Resource Management Plan for the Hartman Rocks Recreation Area

Summary

The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) intends to prepare a RAMP with an associated Environmental Assessment (EA) for the Hartman Rocks area near Gunnison, Colorado. The planning area encompasses approximately 10,000 acres of public land. This proposed action is being taken in response to increasing use and the changing needs and interests of public land users of this popular recreation area located near the city of Gunnison. The BLM will work collaboratively with interested parties to identify the management decisions that are best suited to local, regional, and national needs and concerns. The public scoping process will identify planning issues and develop planning criteria, including an evaluation of the existing management direction in the context of the needs and interests of the public. It is probable that the collaborative planning process will recommend changes to the Gunnison RMP for this area so this notice provides for this contingency. If desired management actions identified in the planning process can be carried out within the existing guidance of the RMP then an RMP Amendment will not be necessary.
