9/13/2024:  The Bureau of Land Management Kingman Field Office issued a Finding of No Significant Impacts (FONSI) and a Decision Record approving the Proposed Action (Alternative A), to implement gather and fertility control in the Big Sandy, Alamo, and Lake Havasu Herd Management Areas (also called the Three Rivers Complex).  The 30-day administrative appeal period ended October 14, 2024.

The BLM prepared an environmental assessment (EA) for the Big Sandy, Alamo, and Lake Havasu Herd Management Areas Wild Burro Gather and Population Control Plan located on approximately 955,000 acres of public, state, and private lands in Mohave, Yavapai, and La Paz Counties in northwestern Arizona.  The EA includes analysis of four action alternatives and a no action alternative. The action alternatives describe different options to, over the next 10 years, remove excess wild burros, achieve and maintain the established appropriate management levels, and implement fertility control for wild burros on lands within and near the Big Sandy, Alamo, and Lake Havasu Herd Management Areas, also referred to as the Three Rivers Complex. 

This EA discloses and analyzes the potential environmental consequences of each of the action alternatives and the no action alternative to determine whether any significant impacts could result from implementation of the proposed alternatives. 

Thank you for your continued interest in public land management within the Kingman and Lake Havasu Field Offices.
