BUTTE — The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) has started analyzing motorized access on its managed public lands in Lewis and Clark County and want resident to weigh in.

Members of the public are being asked to submit comments on the routes to help the BLM guide the future of the Travel Management Plan and an Environmental Assessment.

Following the public scoping period, the BLM will look at different options for management, document existing recreation conditions, soil, wildlife and other social or natural resources.
