AMENDMENT THREE
COACHELLA VALLEY FRINGE-TOED LIZARD PRESERVE RNA/ACEC
Proposed Amendment
Combine the 1,694-acre Edom Hill- Willow Hole ACEC (#79) with the Coachella Valley Preserve
(7,000 acres) and the Whitewater Floodplain (Indian Avenue) Preserve (1,230 acres) to form the
9,924-acre Coachella Valley Fringe-Toed Lizard Preserve RNA/ACEC. Management of the ACEC
will primarily focus on the protection and recovery of the Coachella Valley Fringe-Toed Lizard (Uma
inornata), a Federally-listed "threatened" species and a State-listed "endangered" species.
Other Alternatives Considered
No Action: Maintain the Edom Hill- Willow Hole Preserve ACEC and manage the three areas in
accordance with the Coachella Valley Preserve System Management Plan (1986).
Decision
Adopt the Proposed Amendment.
Rationale
The consolidation of the two preserves and an existing ACEC, creating a single management entity
for the Coachella Valley Fringe-Toed Lizard (CVFTL), will improve management of the habitat for
this Federally listed species. It also implements recommendations in the Habitat Conservation Plan
(1985) and the Coachella Valley Preserve System Management Plan (1986). The three areas contain
the ecosystems needed to support the CVFTL as well as other sensitive plants and animals including
the Least Bell's Vireo which is Federally and State-listed as endangered and two Federal candidate
plant species, archaeological resources and cultural values. The resource values in the three areas
meet the ACEC criteria of relevance and importance and warrant special management attention.
Implementation Needs
Update and implement the management plan for the ACEC, including the following actions:
* Eliminate the OHV trespass problem by fencing, signing, enforcement of road closures,
patrolling and public education.
* Remove exotic plants, including salt cedar (Tamarix-pentandra) and athel (Tamarix aphylla)
by cutting and application of herbicides; monitor Russion thistle and consider removal; all
herbicide use will be conducted in accordance with BLM vegetation management policies and
with site-specific environmental analysis.
* Remove abandoned buildings.
* Develop hiking and equestrian trails.
* Prepare and distribute educational brochures.
* Monitor rare plant and animal species.

AMENDMENT FOUR
HALLORAN WASH ACEC
Proposed Amendment
No Action: Maintain the Halloran Wash ACEC (#29) designation and continue to manage the area
in accordance with ACEC management guidelines.
Other Alternatives Considered
Delete the Halloran Wash ACEC (#29).
Decision
Adopt Proposed Amendment.
Rationale
This area was originally designated as an ACEC in recognition of its potential to yield data pertaining
to Anasazi turquoise mines, which had been found on adjacent lands. No such resources have been
found on public lands within the ACEC. In 1982 the ACEC was expanded to include an area
thought to contain petroglyphs, however, recent on-site examination showed that the petroglyphs are
on private land outside the ACEC boundary while other petroglyphs are partially on public land.
A proposal to eliminate the ACEC designation was based on evidence that the resources within the
ACEC boundary did not meet the criteria of relevance and importance. Internal and external
concerns were raised regarding the adequacy of the data upon which we were basing our
recommendation to delete the ACEC designation. It was decided that before reconsidering the
ACEC designation, further survey within the ACEC and evaluation of cultural resources on public
land are necessary to determine if the values warrant continuation under ACEC management.
Implementation Needs
Conduct complete survey and evaluation of cultural resources in the Halloran Wash ACEC.

AMENDMENT FIVE
AMBOY CRATER NATIONAL NATURAL LANDMARK ACEC
Proposed Amendment
Designate the Amboy Crater and its surrounding areas, located in San Bernardino County 2.5 miles
west of the community of Amboy, as a National Natural Landmark ACEC. The total area of the
ACEC is 640 acres. The area would be managed under the Amboy Crater National Natural
Landmark Management Plan (1987).
Other Alternatives Considered
No Action: Continue to manage the area in accordance with the National Natural Landmark
Management Plan (1987).
Decision
Adopt Proposed Amendment.
Rationale
Prior to the passage of FLPMA, the Bureau of Land Management used a variety of designations to
identify areas with unique or outstanding values. To eliminate the proliferation of terms, California
BLM developed the ACEC "umbrella" concept, under which all special area will be designated as
ACECs provided they meet the ACEC criteria. Special areas in the CDCA have been reviewed to
determine their eligibility for ACEC designation. In 1987 the BLM evaluated the 5,760 acre area
which included the Amboy Crater cinder cone and the entire lava flow. It was determined that the
significant part of the area was the cinder cone and the area immediately surrounding it. The 640
acre area includes the most significant resources associated with the Amboy Crater. These resources
meet the ACEC criteria of relevance and importance and warrant special management attention.
Implementation Needs
Implement the Amboy Crater National Natural Landmark Management Plan, as follows:
* Withdraw entire area from mineral entry under the Mining Law of 1872.
* Enforce closure of the area to firearm use.
* Provide interpretive signing.
* Construct small day-use facility.
* Prevent vehicle access beyond the day use site.
* Restore north face of cinder cone.
* Provide interpretive trail to the top of the cone.

AMENDMENT SIX
BIGELOW CHOLLA RNA/ACEC
Proposed Amendment
Designate the 80-acre Bigelow (Teddy Bear) Cholla as a Research Natural Area (RNA)/ACEC. The
area lies on both sides of Interstate 40 in the Sacramento Mountains adjacent to land owned by the
University of California as part of its Natural Reserve System. The area shall be managed primarily
for research purposes.
Other Alternatives Considered
No Action: Continue management of area under multiple-use class "M".
Decision
Adopt Proposed Amendment
Rationale
Prior to the passage of FLPMA, the Bureau of Land Management used a variety of designations to
identify areas with unique or outstanding values. To eliminate the proliferation of terms, California
BLM developed the ACEC "umbrella" concept, under which all special areas will be designated as
ACECs provided they meet the ACEC criteria. Special areas in the CDCA have been reviewed to
determine their eligibility for ACEC designation. The Bigelow Cholla was managed as a Natural
Area. It contains the northern-most population and the densest-known concentration of Bigelow
Cholla in the CDCA. The resource values have been determined to meet the ACEC criteria of
importance and relevance, and the resources and values require special attention.
Implementation Needs
Develop a Memorandum of Understanding with the University of California to address cooperative
research activities in the area and to serve as the ACEC management plan.

AMENDMENT SEVEN
CIMA DOME ONA/ACEC
Proposed Amendment
Designate 18,640 acres of public land encompassing the Cima Dome as an Outstanding Natural Area
(ONA)/ACEC. The ACEC shall be managed to protect the outstanding Joshua Tree forest and
other important resources.
Other Alternatives Considered
No Action: Continue to manage area as specified in the East Mojave National Scenic Area Plan
(1988).
Decision
Adopt Proposed Amendment.
Rationale
Prior to the passage of FLPMA, the Bureau of Land Management used a variety of designations to
identify areas with unique or outstanding values. To eliminate the proliferation of terms, California
BLM developed the ACEC "umbrella" concept, under which all special areas will be designated as
ACECs. Special areas in the CDCA have been reviewed to determine their eligibility for ACEC
designation. Cima Dome designation meets the ACEC criteria of importance and relevance, and the
resources and values require special attention. The incorporation of the ONA into an ACEC will
provide additional visibility to ensure its protection under the existing East Mojave National Scenic
Area Plan (1988).
Implementation Needs
Implement management actions prescribed in the East Mojave National Scenic Area Plan which are
applicable to Cima Dome, including the following:
*
Maintain the withdrawal from mineral entry under the mining laws on 18,320 acres.
Withdraw the remaining 320 acre Wildcat Butte area from mineral entry.
Acquire one section of State land within the ACEC boundary through exchange.
Close several routes to protect natural values in the Joshua Tree woodland.

CINDER CONES NNL/ACEC
Proposed Amendment
Designate the 24,320-acre Cinder Cones NNL and 640 acres adjacent to the east border as a National
Natural Landmark (NNL)/ACEC. The ACEC shall be managed for the protection of the volcanic
cones and other geologic and cultural resources in the vicinity.
Other Alternatives Considered
No Action: Continue to manage area under the East Mojave National Scenic Area Plan (1988).
Decision
Adopt Proposed Amendment.
Rationale
Prior to the passage of FLPMA, the Bureau of Land Management used a variety of designations to
identify areas with unique or outstanding values. To eliminate the proliferation of terms, California
BLM developed the ACEC "umbrella" concept, under which all special areas will be designated as
ACECs. Special areas in the CDCA have been reviewed to determine their eligibility for ACEC
designation. The Cinder Cones area was designated as a National Natural Landmark in 1975. Part
of the area had previously been designated an Outstanding Natural Area. The resources in the area,
including extensive lava flows interspersed with numerous dormant volcanic cones which are noted
for their petroglyph-covered basalts, meet the ACEC criteria of importance and relevance, and the
resources and values require special attention. The incorporation of the ONA into an ACEC will
provide additional visibility to ensure its protection under the existing East Mojave National Scenic
Area Plan (1988).
Implementation Needs
Implement management actions prescribed in the East Mojave National Scenic Area Plan which are
applicable to Cinder Cones, including the following:
* Maintain withdrawal from mineral entry on 4,800 acres.
* Withdraw from mineral entry an additional 15, 320 acres.
* Acquire 1,280 acres of state land through exchange within the proposed ACEC boundary.
* Close several vehicle routes to protect cultural and natural values.
Limit the extraction of mineral materials (sand, gravel, cinders) to the amount required by
local governments.

public land in the area is intermingled with lands owned by the University of California (UC) and is
jointly managed by the BLM and UC for research and protection of an unusually diverse range of
vegetation and wildlife.
Other Alternatives Considered
No Action: Continue to manage with the University of California, in compliance with the East Mojave
National Scenic Area Plan guidelines.
Decision
Adopt Proposed Amendment.
Rationale
Prior to the passage of FLPMA, the Bureau of Land Management used a variety of designations to
identify areas with unique or outstanding values. To eliminate the proliferation of terms, California
BLM developed the ACEC "umbrella" concept, under which all special areas will be designated as
ACECs. Special areas in the CDCA have been reviewed to determine their eligibility for ACEC
designation. The diversity of biological resources in the Granite Mountains meet the ACEC criteria
of importance and relevance, and the resources and values require special attention. The
incorporation of the RNA into an ACEC will provide additional visibility to ensure its protection
under the existing East Mojave National Scenic Area Plan (1988).
Implementation Needs
Implement management actions prescribed in the East Mojave National Scenic Area Plan which are
applicable to the Granite Mountains, including the following:
* Acquire one State section inside the ACEC boundary through exchange.
* Maintain withdrawal from mineral entry for 520 acres within the ACEC.
* Withdraw from mineral entry the remaining 6,160 acres.

KELSO DUNES ONA/ACEC
Proposed Amendment
Designate 49,065 acres of the Kelso Sand Dunes as an Outstanding Natural Area (ONA)/ACEC.
The ACEC boundaries would coincide with the boundaries of the Kelso Sand Dunes Wilderness
Study Area (CDCA-250) which has been recommended for wilderness designation. The area would
be managed to protect the unique dunes ecosystem with great species diversity found in the visually
spectacular Kelso Dunes, one of the three tallest dunes systems in North America.
Other Alternatives Considered
No Action: Continue to manage under the East Mojave National Scenic Area Management Plan.
Decision
Adopt Proposed Amendment.
Rationale
Prior to the passage of FLPMA, the Bureau of Land Management used a variety of designations to
identify areas with unique or outstanding values. To eliminate the proliferation of terms, California
BLM developed the ACEC "umbrella" concept, under which all special areas will be designated as
ACECs. Special areas in the CDCA have been reviewed to determine their eligibility for ACEC
designation. Kelso Dunes had previously been designated in 1972 as an Outstanding Natural Area.
The Kelso Dunes with their unique flora and fauna meet the ACEC criteria of importance and
relevance, and the resources and values require special attention. The incorporation of the ONA
into an ACEC will provide additional visibility to ensure its protection under the existing East Mojave
National Scenic Area Management Plan (1988).

AMENDMENT ELEVEN
TURTLE MOUNTAINS NNL/ACEC
Proposed Amendment
Designate 44,160 acres in the Turtle Mountains as a National Natural Landmark (NNL)/ACEC. The
ACEC would occupy the same area as the vehicle closure area established in 1976. The boundaries
would encompass the central core of the Turtle Mountains, including the Mopah Springs ACEC
(#75) and a large portion of the Turtle Mountain Wilderness Study Area (CDCA-307) which was
recommended for wilderness designation. The area will be managed for the protection of the fragile
and unique environment, including some of the most distinctive volcanic formations in the California
Desert.
Other Alternatives Considered
No Action: Continue management under guidelines of BLM's Interim Management Policy for Lands
Under Wilderness Review and continuation of the vehicle closure.
Decision
Adopt Proposed Amendment.
Rationale
Prior to the passage of FLPMA, the Bureau of Land Management used a variety of designations to
identify areas with unique or outstanding values. To eliminate the proliferation of terms, California
BLM developed the ACEC "umbrella" concept, under which all special areas will be designated as
ACECs. Special areas in the CDCA have been reviewed to determine their eligibility for ACEC
designation. The Turtle Mountain resources meet the ACEC criteria of relevance and importance,
and the resources and values require special attention.
Implementation Needs
Prepare an ACEC management plan which would incorporate management actions already
established for the Mopah Springs ACEC and includes the following measures:
* Maintain the vehicle closure by periodic ranger patrol and BLM staff observations.
* Continue to enforce and monitor the road closure into the Mopah Springs ACEC, as directed
by the ACEC Plan (1982).

AMENDMENT TWELVE
DESERT LILY PRESERVE ACEC
Proposed Amendment
Designate the 2,040 acre Desert Lily Preserve Natural Area an ACEC. A preserve was dedicated
in 1968. The area is valued for its outstanding floral displays when winter rains are plentiful.
Management of the ACEC would continue the 1972 withdrawal from all forms of appropriation
including mineral entry, and maintain the 1975 fence on the east side of the preserve which borders
Highway 177. Additional management actions would be prescribed as necessary to protect the
unique resources at this location.
Other Alternatives Considered
No Action: Continue to management area under multiple-use class "L" and maintain existing fencing
and withdrawal.
Decision
Adopt Proposed Amendment.
Rationale
Prior to the passage of FLPMA, the Bureau of Land Management used a variety of designations to
identify areas with unique or outstanding values. To eliminate the proliferation of terms, California
BLM developed the ACEC "umbrella" concept, under which all special areas will be designated as
ACECs. Special areas in the CDCA have been reviewed to determine their eligibility for ACEC
designation. The resources found in the Desert Lily Preserve meet the ACEC criteria of relevance
and importance, and the resources and values warrant special management attention.
Implementation Needs
Prepare ACEC management plan which would, at a minimum, include the following management
actions:
* Maintain withdrawal from all forms of appropriation including mineral entry.
* Maintain the fence on the east side of the preserve bordering highway 177.
* Monitor the status of the unique resources at this location.

NORTH ALGODONES DUNES NNL/ACEC
Proposed Amendment
Designate ACEC status for the 27,767 acre portion of the Imperial Dunes to be called the North
Algodones Dunes and which has the same boundaries as the portion of Wilderness Study Area
CDCA-360 that the Bureau recommends as suitable for wilderness designation. The area is bordered
on the south by Highway 78, on the west by the new Coachella Canal, on the east by the Southern
Pacific Railroad and the Niland Glamis Road, and on the north by Mammoth Wash. The ACEC
would be termed the North Algodones Dunes to distinguish it from the larger area known as the
Imperial Sand Dunes. The ACEC will be managed in accordance with the 1987 Imperial Sand
Dunes Recreation Area Management Plan (RAMP) which prescribed special management measures
for protecting the northern portion of the dune system included in this ACEC.
Other Alternatives Considered
No Action: Continue management under the Imperial Dunes Recreation Area Management Plan
(1987) and the Interim Management Policy for Lands Under Wilderness Review.
Decision
Adopt Proposed Amendment.
Rationale
Prior to the passage of FLPMA, the Bureau of Land Management used a variety of designations to
identify areas with unique or outstanding values. To eliminate the proliferation of terms, California
BLM developed the ACEC "umbrella" concept, under which all special areas will be designated as
ACECs. Special areas in the CDCA have been reviewed to determine their eligibility for ACEC
designation. The outstanding dune system and associated resources located in the North Algodones
Dunes meet the ACEC criteria of relevance and importance, and warrant special management
attention.
Implementation Needs
Implement the management actions prescribed in the Imperial Sand Dunes RAMP as follows:
Maintain and aggressively enforce motor vehicle closure.
Enhance nonmotorized recreation opportunities.
Protect wilderness suitability in accordance with BLM's Interim Management Policy for Lands
Under Wilderness Review.
Monitor and protect the integrity of plant and wildlife habitat.

acres) from "L" to unclassified.
Other Alternatives Considered
No Action: Continue to manage the area under Multiple-Use class "L".
Decision
Adopt Proposed Amendment.
Rationale
The two parcels are isolated within an area containing only private lands or other scattered
unclassified parcels. This change in classification would make these parcels available for sale or
exchange and would be consistent with the long term management of this area.
Implementation Needs
None.

MULTIPLE-USE CLASS CHANGE IN ARROYO SALADA OPEN AREA
Proposed Amendment
Change the multiple-use class of approximately 8.5 sections in the Arroyo Salada Open Area from
"I" to "M" for transfer to the State of California, and change two sections adjacent to the east of the
open area from "I" to "M" for a total of 10.5 sections.
Other Alternatives Considered
No Action: Continue to manage the area under multiple-use class T.
Decision
Adopt Proposed Amendment.
Rationale
The change in multiple-use designation from "I" to "M" will allow for the transfer of these lands to
the California Department of Parks and Recreation which plans to add this area to their adjacent
Ocotillo Wells State Vehicular Recreation Area. The area consists of scattered sections of private
and public land. The State has acquired much of the private land and wants the authority to manage
the remaining public land. Two sections just east of the State Parks acquisition area would be
changed from Class "I" to Class "M" for consistency with the surrounding Class "M" lands.
Implementation Needs
None.

MULTIPLE-USE CLASS CHANGE AND VEHICLE ACCESS DESIGNATION
IN EL MIRAGE MANAGEMENT AREA
Proposed Amendment
Within the El Mirage Cooperative Management Area:
(1) The multiple-use class of approximately 11,000 acres is changed from "unclassified" to Class T
(intensive use).
(2) Motorized vehicle access is changed from "undesignated" to "open", except for 1,280 acres on the
lake bed which are already classified as "open".
(3) As private land within the management area is acquired (approximately 12,000 acres), it will be
designated as Multiple Use Class "I" and as an "open" motor vehicle access area.
(4) Outside the management area, 5,800 acres of scattered tracts of unclassified lands are changed
to Class "M" with the intent of maintaining them. The remaining 3,200 acres of scattered tracts
remain unclassified and available for disposal. Motorized vehicle access of these scattered lands are
changed from "undesignated" to "limited."
Other Alternatives Considered
No Action: Continue to manage the area under the existing multiple-use classes and motor vehicle
designations.
Decision
Adopt Proposed Amendment.
Rationale
The Proposed Amendment implements the 1990 management plan for El Mirage and provides the
basis for resolving long-time conflicts over areas of mixed public and private land ownership.
Implementation Needs
Implement actions in accordance with the 1990 Management Plan for El Mirage Cooperative
Management Area.
