Revising Land and Resource Management Plans for National Forest and Grasslands in
Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Northeastern Wyoming.

NEW! - Appeal Decisions released for Northern Great Plains Management Plans!

The Northern Great Plains Management Plans Revision is a combined planning effort of the Dakota Prairie Grasslands, and the Medicine Bow-Routt and Nebraska National Forests. This effort will revise the three Land and Resource Management Plans for the National Grassland units on the Dakota Prairie Grasslands and Medicine Bow-Routt National Forest, and all the units of the Nebraska National Forest.

The Management Plans describe the desired conditions for these public lands and set direction to maintain or move toward those conditions. Conditions have changed since the existing Management Plans were written in the 1980s. We have also learned from our experiences as we've implemented these Management Plans. Our experiences, monitoring, and public comments have helped identify needed changes. These needed changes will be the focus for revising the Management Plans.   Adobe Acrobat Reader 5.0 is necessary to download the files.  If you do not have Adobe Acrobat 5.0 you can either download it from the link below or right click on the link to save the .PDF file to your hard drive.  To be able to print maps in better detail and quality go to www.cnet.com and type in screen capture in the search box, or click here for freeware.
