Say something only you can say. The law requires the agency to consider and respond to substantive comments, and specifics are what make a comment substantive.
PLAN's read: high threat
In the agency’s own words
The BLM proposes to amend existing regulations that establish the procedures to prepare, revise, or amend land use plans pursuant to the Federal Land Policy and Management Act, as amended (FLPMA). We solicit comment on all aspects of this proposed rule.
Who signs it
The notice names no signer PLAN could read. PLAN names a decision-maker only when the document names one.
The ground
This fight isn’t bound to a map place in PLAN’s record yet. The notice names BLM-managed public lands nationwide; none is a unit on the threatened lands map, so there’s no place page to open or watch.
The photograph on this page: Pronghorn in sagebrush steppe. It’s the country this decision sits in, not the site itself. More Than Just Parks.
In court on this ground
This fight isn’t bound to a land unit in PLAN’s record yet, so there are no court cases to show for its ground.
Who holds the vote
PLAN’s record doesn’t tie a member of Congress to this fight yet. The scorecard grades the votes and bills that decide public lands; nothing joins a vote or a bill to this decision, so there’s no member to name here without guessing.
