2.5.3.4.2. Management Actions

RR-90. Develop facilities with a variety of amenities consistent with the desired recreation setting. Provide nonintrusive directional route signs and user information in the RMZ .

RR-91. Make all designated routes within this zone available for general motorized recreation use, commercial use, organized OHV events, and competitive races.

RR-92. The number of miles of single and two-track motorized routes allocated to motorized competitive races will be determined by trail sustainability and durability along with the ability to reduce environmental issues and social conflicts. A course of routes used for competitive races would optimally provide for an array of challenges for truck, buggy, ATV , and motorcycle competitive races.

RR-93. Locate at least 20 miles of single and two-track motorized routes to provide a unique array of challenges for truck, buggy, ATV , and motorcycle competitive races.

RR-94. Limit the number of motorized competitive races to two per year.

RR-95. Develop the Boulders staging area for the following purposes:

meeting intense motorized recreation demands,
parking,
unloading of OHVs,
overnight camping, and
large special-event operations.

RR-96. Development at Boulders staging area could include the following:

informational signs,
kiosks,
picnic tables,
vault toilets,
campground host facilities, and
soil stabilization for dust abatement.

RR-97. Limit to 25 acres the area of exposed barren soil at Boulders staging area. Mark or delineate the perimeter to prevent further expansion.

RR-98. Locate and develop at least one small staging and camping area for up to ten vehicles with trailers for the following purposes:

parking,
unloading OHVs, and
picnicking.

RR-99. Development of small staging/camping areas could include the following:

informational signs,
kiosks,
picnic tables,
loading ramp, and
soil stabilization for dust abatement.

RR-100. Limit to 5 acres the areas of exposed barren soil at small staging/camping areas. Mark or delineate the perimeter to prevent expansion.

RR-101. Apply proactive adaptive management to manage potential conflicts with surrounding communities and landowners, and potential impacts to resources. Mitigation may be needed to reduce these problems. The following are examples of mitigation:

implementing speed limits on routes to reduce fugitive dust,
stabilizing soil on routes,
closing routes for some types of activities,
imposing stricter noise reduction standards, and
establishing seasonal or time-of-day use restrictions or both.

RR-102. Determine specific areas where comprehensive site assessments would be initiated to:

determine existing physical and social impacts of recreation activities,
define desired conditions and standards, and
establish monitoring plans to manage camping and other recreation uses.

Conduct these assessments with public collaboration involving interested residents, users, and other interested parties.
