Decision Record For The Environmental Assessment For Coal Planning Decisions In The Carbon Basin Area Of The Great Divide Resource Area, United States Department Of The Interior, Bureau Of Land Management

The purpose of this EA is to amend the Land and Resource Management Plan (LRMP) for the Wilderness Management Standards and Guidelines (S&Gs). The need for the revised S&Gs is to provide more definable and measurable standards related to the items described in the Proposed Action. Current S&Gs do not provide sufficient direction to determine the trend of the Cloud Peak Wilderness (CPW) condition or require conflicting actions. The proposed S&Gs will facilitate determination of the trend of physical, biological and social aspects of the wilderness resource.

In addition, the vision statement developed by the ad-hoc committee will continue to provide guidance …
