Wilderness review begins for New Mexico lands in BLM program
The BLM issued inventory procedures for wilderness values on 13 million acres of New Mexico lands. The process under FLPMA starts with identifying areas over 5,000 acres without roads to determine suitability for the National Wilderness Preservation System, with final designation by Congress. Public input influenced definitions of roadless areas and participation will continue through the process.
