MOAB — The Bureau of Land Management is seeking public input on a plan to control noxious weeds and invasive species in the Moab area.

Open house meetings will be held on July 8, 10 a.m. and 5 p.m. at the BLM Moab Field Office, 82 E. Dogwood. Meetings will begin with a short presentation followed by a Q-and-A session.

The BLM plan could include use of mechanical, chemical, manual, prescribed fire and biological measures. Treatments would be used along major rivers, drainages, roads and uplands in the Moab region to reduce invasive plant spread, decrease infestations and control populations.

Details of the proposed action and a project map are available at eplanning.blm.gov.

Written comments will be accepted until July 29. Reference “Programmatic Invasive Species Management Plan” when submitting comments.

Written comments should be mailed to Bureau of Land Management, Canyon Country District Office, Attention: Fuels, 82 E. Dogwood, Moab, UT 84532; or email blm_ut_mb_comments@blm.gov.
