The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Sierra Front Field Office has prepared a draft evaluation for the Pine Nut Mountains herd management area (HMA), which is located south of Dayton and east of Carson City, Nevada.

This draft evaluation describes the history of the HMA, condition of riparian areas based on functional assessments, and vegetative trends based on rangeland health assessments. The purpose of the draft evaluation is to assess the existing conditions of the HMA, and whether the objectives of maintaining a thriving natural ecologic balance in relationship to the multiple-use mandate of maintaining a healthy range for wildlife, livestock, and wild horses is being achieved.

The BLM is requesting any data that individuals might have pertaining to the vegetation condition, utilization levels, riparian condition, and wild horse condition by Sept. 22.

The draft evaluation is available online at www.blm.gov/nv/st/en/fo/carson_city_field.html
