First Round of BLM Planning Meetings Underway in Colorado

Published on 1/21/2020

In 2014, the National Off-Highway Vehicle Conservation Council (NOHVCC), and the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), partnered to develop a National Motorized Recreation Action Strategy. This was designed to help the BLM develop individual state action plans for providing high quality OHV opportunities and develop partnerships to help maintain those opportunities. The strategies will guide the BLM in future Resource Management Plans (RMP) and Travel Management Plans (TMP); however, the strategies are NOT part of a specific travel management plan. In developing these strategies, enthusiasts will have a chance to share thoughts on the following topics:

What activities are taking place on BLM managed lands?
Where in general are OHV activities taking place?
What experiences are you looking for on BLM managed lands?
Where might these missing activities fit on BLM managed lands?
What could the BLM do better to enhance your recreation experience?

Thanks to funding from the BLM and management of the planning meetings and planning process by NOHVCC and working directly with COHVCO, Colorado can join those states who have already finished their planning. Go to https://www.nohvcc.org/nohvcc-initiatives/blm, scroll down, and read current plans created by other western states.
