The project would combine the Blair and Stange allotments into the Little Joe allotment.
The ArcGIS Viewer shows the outline for Little Joe but not Blair and Stange.
Blair offers 61 active AUMs on 246 public acres according to the allotment master report, equivalent to 20.7 wild horses per thousand public acres.
Stange offers 360 active AUMs on 1,285 public acres, equivalent to 23.3 wild horses per thousand public acres.
Your faithful public servants claim that public lands in the western U.S. can only support one wild horse per thousand acres.
If resources on the deeded acreage were added to the mix, Little Joe would support livestock equivalent to 127 wild horses on 5,358 total acres, or 23.7 wild horses per thousand acres.
The deadline for submitting comments is January 5.
