BLM Proposes New Conservation Plans for National Monuments in New Mexico and Oregon-California, Balancing Use and Protection.

The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) has proposed plans for managing two national monuments, one in New Mexico and another in Oregon and California, which would add new conservation designations but allow other uses like livestock grazing and off-highway vehicle use. The largest plan would cover the Organ Mountains-Desert Peaks National Monument in southern New Mexico, and the second covers 115,000 acres in the Cascade-Siskiyou National Monument. The proposals emphasize the protection of natural and cultural resources.
