The Ninth Circuit ruled that gather plans for the Little Fish Lake JMA and Stone Cabin Complex complied with the immediacy requirement of the WHB Act according to an opinion filed today.
The panel noted that the Act requires the BLM to promulgate gather plans that remove excess animals as promptly as logistically and reasonably possible but grants the agency significant latitude to determine what is logistically and reasonably possible, concluding that neither of the plans ran afoul of that provision.
