PINEDALE, Wyo. – The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) believes partnerships and inclusion are vital to managing sustainable, working public lands. The BLM Pinedale Field Office is scheduled to hold combined Pinedale Anticline Project Area wildlife, air, water and operator planning meetings on Thursday, April 25 from 8:30 a.m. – 5 p.m.
There will be two sessions that day covering all agenda items. The morning session (8:30 a.m. – noon) is the annual wildlife planning meeting. Topics include required wildlife monitoring and updates on mule deer and Greater sage-grouse populations and mitigation.
The afternoon session (1–5 p.m.) will be the annual air, water and operator meeting. Topics include socioeconomics, air quality, water quality/monitoring, reclamation and operator development projections and reports and lease suspensions. Past sessions have concluded earlier than expected, and that may be the case again during this meeting. The meetings are open to the public and there will be a question and comment period opportunity.
The Pinedale Field Office is located at 1625 W. Pine St., Pinedale, Wyo. For more information about the Pinedale Anticline Project Area and the upcoming meeting agenda, visit: https://www.wy.blm.gov/jio-papo/whatsgoingon.htm or contact Kellie Roadifer at 307-367-5309.
