Analyzes five alternatives for managing approximately 456,000 acres of land administered by the Bureau of Land Management in Central and Eastern Oregon. BLM lands within the planning area are located in Grant, Wheeler County, Gilliam, Sherman, Wasco, Jefferson, Umatilla, and Morrow counties. Each of the Action Alternatives would revise management guidance for lands managed under the 1985 John Day Resource Management Plan (JDRMP), the eastern portion of BLM Lands managed under the 1986 Two Rivers Resource Management Plan (RMP), and the southwestern portion of lands managed under the Baker RMP. The five alternative combinations of land use allocations and allowable uses respond to the significant issues identified during scoping: Landscape Health, Access, and Travel Management, and management of public lands near the North Fork John Day River (NFJDR). Much of this land was acquired as a result of the Oregon Land Exchange Act of 2000.
