SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On March 6, 2015, the BLM published in the

reasonably foreseeable actions as identified in the Desert Renewable

    Concurrent with the WMRNP planning effort, the BLM is proposing 
CDCA LUPA alternatives in the DRECP that include, among other 
proposals, special area designations and associated management 
parameters, and which comprise new information that may be considered

the WMRNP. The BLM is considering whether to adjust or add additional 
alternatives to the WMRNP in response to the proposals in the DRECP. 
All previously submitted comments will be considered; comments 
submitted during the initial WMRNP comment period need not be 
resubmitted.
    Information and environmental documents on the DRECP are available 
for review at http://www.blm.gov/ca/st/en/prog/energy/DRECP.html.
    Before including your address, phone number, email address, or 
other personal identifying information in your comment, you should be 
aware that your entire comment--including your personal identifying 
information--may be made publicly available at any time. While you can 
ask us in your comment to withhold your personal identifying 
information from public review, we cannot guarantee that we will be 
able to do so.
