Abstract

Due to the lack of reliable water in much of the West Warm Springs allotment, livestock, wild horses and burros are limited in most years to areas containing reliable water. The need for the proposed 2008 Allotment Management Plan is to ensure livestock grazing on public land moves toward achieving all Standards and Guidelines and meets the resource objectives identified for West Warm Springs Allotment and RMP objectives. The AMP/EA analyzes the recommended management actions developed through the evaluation process and subsequent Interdisciplinary Team work and through coordination with the livestock permittees to aid in accomplishing resource objectives and meeting Standards and Guidelines and land use plan objectives for West Warm Springs Allotment.
