Does anyone know anything about this. I just recieved a cd-rom in the mail. Not sure who I recieved it from. It came from Van Nuys Ca but didnt have a name on it. On the cdrom it says Prpopsed Plan FEIS. Also says Northern and Eastern Colorado Desert Coordinated Management Plan. Does anyone have any ideas on who or what sent these out?? I havent gone through the thing yet though.....

The following is an excerpt from the CD referred to previously. It outlines the procedure for filing a protest.


Filing Protests

Procedure, Timeframe, and Mailing

The elements of a properly prepared protest are described in 43 Code of Federal

Regulations 1610.5-2 Protest Procedures:

(a) Any person who participates in the planning process and has an interest which is or may be adversely affected by the approval or amendment of a resource management plan may protest such approval or amendment. A protest may raise only those issues which were submitted for the record during the planning process.

(1) The protest shall be in writing and shall be filed with the Director. The protest shall be filed within 30 days of the date the Environmental Protection Agency published the notice of receipt of the final environmental impact statement containing the plan or amendment in the FEDERAL REGISTER. For an amendment not requiring the preparation of an environmental impact statement, the protest shall be filed within 30 days of the publication of the notice of its effective date.

(2) The protest shall contain:

(i) The name, mailing address, telephone number and interest of the person filing the protest;

(ii) A statement of the issue or issues being protested;

(iii) A statement of the part or parts of the plan or amendment being protested;

(iv) A copy of all documents addressing the issue or issues that were submitted during the planning process by the protesting party or an indication of the date the issue or issues were discussed for the record; and

(v) A concise statement explaining why the State Director’s decision is believe to be wrong.

(3) The Director shall promptly render a decision on the protest. The decision shall be in writing and shall set forth the reasons for the decision. The decision shall be sent to the protesting party by certified mail, return receipt requested.

(b) The decision of the Director shall be the final decision for the Department of the Interior.
