Comments by Issue Category ........................................................................................................... 6 ii 1 INTRODUCTION The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument (GSENM or Monument) and the BLM Kanab Field Office, Kanab, Utah, intend to prepare Resource Management Plans (RMPs) for the three new GSENM managements units: Grand Staircase, Kaiparowits, and Escalante Canyons Units. A fourth RMP will be prepared for BLM-administered lands within the original Monument boundary but outside the boundaries of the three new units; these lands are referred to as the excluded lands. The BLM will also prepare a single Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for the three new units and for the excluded lands to satisfy National Environmental Policy Act of 1969, as amended (NEPA), requirements for this planning process. The Planning Area for this effort is shown in Figure 1. The preparation of these documents satisfies the requirements of NEPA, the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976, as amended (FLPMA); the National Forest Management Act of 1976, as amended (NFMA); and Presidential Proclamation 6920, as modified by Presidential Proclamation 9682. The BLM will not repeat or duplicate direction from law, regulation, policy, or agency guidance (e.g., instructional memoranda, manuals, handbooks) in the RMPs. The BLM began a scoping process on January 16, 2018, to solicit public comments and to identify issues to be addressed in the development of the RMPs and EIS. Comments were received by U.S. Postal Service mail, email, and website form, and verbal and written comments were submitted at two public meetings. The scoping period ended on April 13, 2018. This report summarizes the issues identified in the comments submitted. 1 Figure 1. GSENM Planning Area. 2 2 SCOPING PROCESS 2.1 Purpose of Scoping In accordance with Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ) NEPA regulations (40 Code of Federal Regulations [CFR] 1501.7), it is through the scoping process that the lead agency will 1) determine the scope and significant issues to be analyzed in depth in the EIS; 2) identify and eliminate from detailed study the issues that are not significant, narrowing the discussion of such issues to a brief presentation in the EIS regarding why they will not have a significant effect on the human environment; and 3) identify a range of reasonable alternatives that address issues identified during scoping. The scoping process will also help the BLM identify issues to be addressed in the RMPs/EIS. 2.2 Scoping Outreach 2.2.1 Publication of the Notice of Intent The formal public scoping process began on January 16, 2018, with the publication of the Notice of Intent (NOI) in the Federal Register informing the public of the BLM’s intent to prepare RMPs for the GSENM Grand Staircase, Kaiparowits, and Escalante Canyons Units; an RMP for the excluded lands; and an associated EIS for all four RMPs (Federal Register Vol. 83, No. 10, 2179). A copy of the Federal Register is available on the BLM’s ePlanning website: https://goo.gl/EHvhbc). The NOI defined the end date of the scoping period as March 19, 2018, or 15 days after the last public meeting, whichever was later. The last public meeting was held on March 29, 2018, and the public period closed on April 13, 2018, for a total scoping period of 107 days. 2.2.2 Other Outreach Methods Other outreach methods comprised the following: • A media release distributed on January 16, 2018, identifying the start of the public scoping period and methods by which interested parties can comment (distributed on January 16, 2018) • A media release distributed on March 9, 2018, announcing meeting dates and locations • Scoping notification letters sent to the BLM’s interested party list 2.3 Opportunities for Public Comment Members of the public and agencies had several methods for providing comments during the scoping period: • Comments could be submitted using the BLM’s ePlanning website at https://goo.gl/EHvhbc. • Comments could be handwritten on comment forms at the scoping meetings. Comment forms were provided to all meeting

  • PRELUDE to SEVEN SLOTS: FILLING and SUBSEQUENT MODIFICATION of SEVEN BROAD CANYONS in the NAVAJO SANDSTONE, SOUTH-CENTRAL UTAH by David B
    PRELUDE TO SEVEN SLOTS: FILLING AND SUBSEQUENT MODIFICATION OF SEVEN BROAD CANYONS IN THE NAVAJO SANDSTONE, SOUTH-CENTRAL UTAH by David B. Loope1, Ronald J. Goble1, and Joel P. L. Johnson2 ABSTRACT Within a four square kilometer portion of Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument, seven distinct slot canyons cut the Jurassic Navajo Sandstone. Four of the slots developed along separate reaches of a trunk stream (Dry Fork of Coyote Gulch), and three (including canyons locally known as “Peekaboo” and “Spooky”) are at the distal ends of south-flowing tributary drainages. All these slot canyons are examples of epigenetic gorges—bedrock channel reaches shifted laterally from previous reach locations. The previous channels became filled with alluvium, allowing active channels to shift laterally in places and to subsequently re-incise through bedrock elsewhere. New evidence, based on optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) ages, indicates that this thick alluvium started to fill broad, pre-existing, bedrock canyons before 55,000 years ago, and that filling continued until at least 48,000 years ago. Streams start to fill their channels when sediment supply increases relative to stream power. The following conditions favored alluviation in the study area: (1) a cooler, wetter climate increased the rate of mass wasting along the Straight Cliffs (the headwaters of Dry Fork) and the rate of weathering of the broad outcrops of Navajo and Entrada Sandstone; (2) windier conditions increased the amount of eolian sand transport, perhaps destabilizing dunes and moving their stored sediment into stream channels; and (3) southward migration of the jet stream dimin- ished the frequency and severity of convective storms.

This high, rugged, and remote region, where bold plateaus and multi-hued cliffs run for distances that defy human perspective, was the last place in the continental United States to be mapped. Even today, this unspoiled natural area remains a frontier, a quality that greatly enhances the monument's value for scientific study. The monument has a long and dignified human history: it is a place where one can see how nature shapes human endeavors in the American West, where distance and aridity have been pitted against our dreams and courage. The monument presents exemplary opportunities for geologists, paleontologists, archeologists, historians, and biologists. The monument is a geologic treasure of clearly exposed stratigraphy and structures. The sedimentary rock layers are relatively undeformed and unobscured by vegetation, offering a clear view to understanding the proc- esses of the earth's formation. A wide variety of formations, some in brilliant colors, have been exposed by millennia of erosion. The monument contains significant portions of a vast geologic stairway, named the Grand Staircase by pioneering geologist Clarence Dutton, which rises 5,500 feet to the rim of Bryce Canyon in an unbroken sequence of great cliffs and plateaus. The monument includes the rugged canyon country of the upper Paria Canyon system, major components of the White and Vermilion Cliffs and associated benches, and the Kaiparowits Plateau.

An isolated track and a trackway are located within the upper member at the Cockscomb, and an isolated track is in the capping sandstone member at Wesses Canyon. The upper member tracks are tridactyl pes imprints consisting of a longer, blunt digit III and shorter, blunt digits II-IV. This trace corresponds well to an ornithropod dinosaur as the trackmaker. The capping sandstone member track is a tridactyl pes with an elongate digit III and shorter digits II-IV. Claw impressions are present on the terminus of digits II and III. This trace is consistent with the pes impression of a one meter tall theropod. The tracks further highlight the diversity of dinosaurs in the capping sandstone of the Wahweap Formation. INTRODUCTION During the Late Cretaceous, North America, in particular the west- ern United States, was the site of a radiation of new dinosaurian genera.
