Alabama Hills National Scenic Area Draft Plan Environmental Assessment

Make your vision for the future of the Alabama Hills heard! On July 8th the Bishop BLM Field Office released the Alabama Hills Draft Plan Environmental Assessment (EA). We are now in an active 30-day comment period that ends August 8th, 2020. In the month of July, there will be two virtual meetings where those interested can ask questions about the EA and share their insights. The virtual meetings will be held on the following dates. Friends of the Inyo will attend these meetings and work the Alabama Hills Stewardship Group and local tribes to form our public comments. If you would like insight on substance for your comments, please reach out to bryan@friendsoftheinyo.org. We hope to virtually see you at the meetings!

 

Virtual meetings

• Wednesday, July 22, from 2:00-4:00 p.m.
• Thursday, July 23, from 5:30-7:30 p.m.

Public meeting materials will be available on the project website: https://eplanning.blm.gov/eplanning-ui/project/1502669/570.
