This BLM rule will take authority away from local land managers who have the most knowledge and experience overseeing resources in their own districts. We need better coordination among state, local and federal land management agencies. Massive landscape-scale plans directed from Washington, D.C. are not the answer. The new Congress will work with President-elect Trump to reverse harmful regulations like this as soon as he takes office.” Background:Barrasso, chairman of the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Subcommittee on Public Lands, Forests, and Mining, chaired a subcommittee oversight hearing on the BLM’s Planning 2.0 initiative on June 21, 2016. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
