Summary: The National Mining Association opposes the proposed rule because it expands rangeland health standards beyond livestock grazing to all BLM programs, which they argue could unlawfully impede mining activities and violate the multiple-use mandate of the FLPMA. They request that the final rule clarify that these standards have no application beyond grazing and do not alter existing rights or authorizations.
The National Mining Association respectfully submits the attached comment opposed to this proposed rule.
