Project Description

What's New

Carlsbad Plan Revision
The Carlsbad Proposed Resources Management Plan (Proposed RMP) and Final Environmental Impact Statement (Final EIS) is being developed to revise and replace the current 1988 Carlsbad RMP, as amended in 1997 and 2008. The Carlsbad Proposed RMP/Final EIS provides proposed future management direction for public lands and resources within the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Carlsbad Field Office (CFO) planning area, comprised of 6.2 million acres, of which 2.1 million surface acres and 2.7 million subsurface acres are BLM-administered. The RMP decisions would apply to the BLM-managed lands and Federal mineral estate. The Draft RMP/EIS was made available for public review and comment August 3, 2018 through November 5, 2018. Copies of the Draft RMP/EIS are also available at the following BLM offices:
