Public comments will now be accepted through January 15, 2016.

Cal4Wheel has participated with this effort along with BlueRibbon Coalition, in addition to the greater sage grouse effort across the 11 western states. The “bi-state” population segment is unique to the Bridgeport region of California and east into Nevada.

There is an ongoing lawsuit lead by BlueRibbon Coalition with Cal4Wheel, AMA District 36 and a local club concerning the the grouse and planning efforts that would impact recreation in the region.

Cal4Wheel will continue to be involved through this round and as long as necessary to ensure OHV recreation is not closed out of the area.
