Book excerpt: The Southern Nevada District Office has prepared the Draft RMP/EIS to support the revision of the 1998 Las Vegas Resource Management Plan. The revised RMP will guide management actions on public lands and mineral estates that are administered by the BLM within the Las Vegas and Pahrump field offices. This plan describes and analyzes four alternatives. Alternative 1 is the "no action" alternative; Alternatives 2, 3, and 4 propose varying levels of resource use and conservation. Alternative 3 is the agency-preferred alternative. Issues analyzed include visual resource management, areas of critical environmental concern, lands and realty management, wild and scenic rivers, minerals and energy resources, travel management, lands with wilderness characteristics, wild horses and burros, fire and fuels management, livestock grazing, recreation, fish and wildlife, vegetation, air, soil, cultural, and water resources.
