Timeline
The BLM developed an integrated timeline for NEPA and ESA consultation for the RMPs for Western Oregon. The intent of the timeline is to illustrate the sequential nature of key milestones for both NEPA and ESA, and to track how those sequential steps build upon one and other. It is a conceptual timeline with broad projections of the desired timing. The document is best thought of as a set of guidelines the agencies will strive to meet while recognizing that the milestones are often linked and dependent on the resolution of complex issues. If certain steps take more time than anticipated, it is expected that the timing of steps to follow would shift accordingly. Following this table is a schematic representation of the timeline.
