The following press releases was published by the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management on Feb. 15, 2018. It is reproduced in full below.

(MISSOULA, Mont.) - Featuring an inside look at the proposed revision to its Resource Management Plan, the Bureau of Land Management’s Missoula Field Office will hold an open house Feb. 21 in Greenough, Mont.

The come-and-go-as-you-please meeting to discuss preliminary alternatives for the plan’s revision begins at 3 p.m. and goes until 5 p.m. at the Lubrecht Forest-Castles Forestry Center, located at 38689 Hwy. 200 East in Greenough. Members of the BLM planning team will be on hand to answer questions and take input from the public throughout the afternoon. This is the final open house in the unveiling of the preliminary alternatives for the Missoula RMP revision.

The meeting was originally scheduled for last month, but was cancelled due to the government shutdown.

The alternatives are the first public look at a new direction of public land management for the Missoula BLM. These alternatives combine years of planning, agency coordination, and public involvement into three alternatives.

The public can also review documents and maps related to the alternatives at http://1.usa.gov/21RNCPG.

For more information about the RMP revision and the upcoming open house, contact Maggie Ward, the Missoula RMP Project Leader at (406) 329-3914, or email blm_mt_missoularmp@blm.gov.
