The BLM Record of Decision (ROD), which approves the final
DRECP BLM Land Use Plan Amendment (LUPA), was signed in September 2016. This was the third step of the
DRECP planning process.
The DRECP BLM LUPA represents the
public-lands component of the DRECP, identifying areas appropriate for
renewable energy development, as well as areas important for biological,
environmental, cultural, recreation, social, and scenic conservation,
consistent with the FLPMA multiple use and sustained yield requirements. While
the BLM LUPA only applies to BLM-managed lands, it will serve as a foundation
for renewable energy and conservation planning in the desert, which will assist
partner agencies in meeting both federal and state climate change and
conservation goals.
