Special Areas; Roadless Area Conservation; National Forest System Lands
The U.S. Forest Service under the U.S. Department of Agriculture is proposing to prepare an Environmental Impact Statement and rulemaking regarding the management of inventoried roadless areas on approximately 44.7 million acres of National Forest System lands. The proposed rule would rescind the 2001 Roadless Area Conservation Rule, which prohibits road construction, road reconstruction, and timber harvesting in inventoried roadless areas.

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is requesting public comments on a draft recovery plan for the peppered chub, an endangered fish native to prairie rivers in the Southwest. The goal is to support multiple self-sustaining peppered chub populations into the foreseeable future. Current populations are limited to portions of the south Canadian River in northeastern New Mexico and the Texas panhandle. The public comment period closes September 19th, 2025.
Fish/Wildlife Conservation/Management, Species Recovery Plan, Threatened or Endangered Species
The purpose of the Action is to authorize grazing on a previously grazed vacant allotment and approve the
construction of approximately 3 miles of boundary fencing on public land, for the purpose of livestock
management.
The need for the Action is established by the BLM, for and in consideration of the mutual benefits
hereunder, and in accordance with the Taylor Grazing Act (43 U.S.C. 315c), as amended, which allows
for cooperative agreement for the construction and/or maintenance of range improvements, installation of
conservation works or establishment of conservation practices, hereinafter referred to collectively as
improvements, for the benefit of the public lands and of the cooperator(s).
Fritz Place, Chaveroo, and Gallinas Well Grazing Permit Renewals
The purpose of re-issuing a grazing permit or lease would be to authorize livestock grazing on public range on allotments NM61006 Fritz Place, NM61007 Chaveroo, & NM61008 Gallina Wells. When authorizing livestock grazing on public range, the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) must conduct a site-specific NEPA analysis before issuing a lease to authorize livestock grazing. This environmental assessment fulfills the NEPA requirement by providing the necessary site-specific analysis of the effects of issuing a renewal grazing permit on this allotment. The permit would be needed to specify the types and levels of use authorized, and the terms and conditions of the authorization pursuant to 43 CFR §§4130.3, 4130.31, 4130.32, and 4180.1.
Resource Management Plan for the BLM Kasha-Katuwe Tent Rocks National Monument. Timing of work would be winter 2025/2026. No on the ground work is needed. Work would involve updating the BLM's Resource Management Plan (RMP) for the park. Sensitive and listed wildlife and plant species protocol surveys may be needed.
The proposed project includes reconstruction or rehabilitation of approximately 5.7 linear miles of existing roadways associated with residential and private properties south of U.S. Highway 70 in Mescalero, New Mexico. The surrounding habitat is relatively undisturbed, and each section of replaced roadway will require temporary disturbance during construction to complete site re-grading and surfacing to improve roadway drainage and safety. The project area was surveyed by a professional biologist in September 2022. Mitigation measures are recommended to limit impacts on surrounding wildlife habitat and potential wetland resources during road reconstruction, and design plans are still being finalized.
Existing roadway improvements required by the New Mexico Department of Transportation for the construction of the Peralta Fire Station on NM 47. This includes any roadway improvements, signal modifications, traffic signage, striping, ADA accessible ramps, sidewalks and drainage improvements required by NMDOT.

The Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) New Mexico State Office announces its intent to prepare a PEIS for the HPCC Burn Scar Project, in Mora, Colfax, Taos, Rio Arriba, Santa Fe, Guadalupe, and San Miguel Counties, New Mexico. The PEIS will examine alternative solutions to address flooding, sedimentation, erosion, water quality impairments, and agricultural water management on private lands due to loss of land cover and the overall burn severity of the HPCC fire. The project area is approximately 500 square miles and includes 33 Hydrologic Unit Code-12 watersheds within nine Hydrologic Unit Code-10 watersheds (nine watersheds). The primary purpose for the PEIS is to provide improvement to increase the flood resilience to protect the communities that have been affected by the HPCC fire and restore the project areas' function that is essential to healthy streams and clean water; healthy forest, soil, and ecosystem; and healthy flora and fauna on private lands and in conjunction with other restoration efforts on National Forest System (NFS) lands. NRCS is requesting comments to identify significant issues, potential alternatives, information, and analyses relevant to the Proposed Action from all interested individuals, Federal and State agencies, and Tribes and Pueblos.

The Towers, LLC proposes the construction of a 195 ft (199 ft overall height) self-support telecommunications tower. Associated equipment will be installed within a proposed 100 ft by 100 ft compound surrounding the tower. Access and utilities will be provided to the tower compound by a proposed 30 ft wide gravel access drive on the south side of the equipment compound southwest towards NM Highway 36. The proposed tower compound and associated utility easement are located in a sparsely vegetated portion of arid land in Quemado, Catron County, New Mexico.
Species list requested for a draft BA/BE in preparation for implementing abandoned
uranium mine (AUM) mitigation measures toward permanently remediating public health
and safety hazards present at the Schmitt Decline, an AUM located on State Trust Land
(STL) near Milan, New Mexico.
The Sioux sweet gas pipeline will tie into two proposed well pads and be located underground, therefore, no negative effects will be associated with the pipeline during production of the wells. The pipeline will transport sweet gas which contains no or only trace amounts of other chemicals compared to sour gas.
