New Case Targets 18 Land Use Plans Approved in Last Months of Bush Administration
Date:
03/19/2009 
The 18 land use plans that BLM approved in the waning months of the Bush Administration determine long-term management on more than 25 million acres of key sage-grouse habitat in Idaho, Nevada, California, Utah, Wyoming and Montana. As the lawsuit explains, BLM failed to study the harmful effects of grazing plus energy development and other actions on sagebrush habitat and sage-grouse populations; and it refused to take the steps its own 2004 Sage Grouse Habitat Conservation Strategy requires to prevent further declines in this imperiled species.
