A new project has been started in ePlanning but the document folder is empty.
The scoping period will begin on September 20.
The description indicates the Proposed Action will authorize the removal of wild burros from in and around the HMA over a ten-year period, reduce the population growth rate and address public safety concerns in the town of Beatty, NV.
Management actions will be captured in a new HMAP.
The National Data Viewer shows one overlapping allotment but does not indicate if pastures inside the HMA are in use.
The Allotment Master Report shows 1,926 active AUMs on 269,764 public acres with one permittee, the Nature Conservancy of Southern Nevada.
A September 12 story by the Pahrump Valley Times said the Town Advisory Board voted to send a letter to the BLM seeking removal of some of the animals.
