    CHURCHILL COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS IBLA 81-539 Decided February 17, 1982 Appeal from a decision of the Nevada State Director, Bureau of Land Management, denying a protest of wilderness study area designations. 8500 (N-932.6). Affirmed. 1. Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976: Wilderness--Wilderness Act--Words and Phrases. "Roadless." H.R. Rep. No. 94-1163, 94th Cong., 2d Sess. 17 (1976), provides a definition of "roadless" adopted by the Bureau of Land Management in its Wilderness Inventory Handbook. The word "roadless" refers to the absence of roads which have been improved and maintained by mechanical means to insure relatively regular and continuous use. A way maintained solely by the passage of vehicles does not constitute a road. 2. Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976: Wilderness--Wilderness Act Sights and sounds outside a wilderness study area will be considered during the study phase of the wilderness review process absent a finding by BLM during the inventory phase that such impacts are adjacent to the unit and are so extremely imposing that they cannot be ignored, and and if not considered, reasonable application of inventory guidelines would be questioned. 3. Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976: Wilderness--Wilderness Act The requirement in section 2(c) of the Wilderness Act of 1964, 16 U.S.C. § 1131(c) (1976), that a wilderness possess, inter alia, outstanding opportunities for solitude or a primitive and unconfined type of 61 IBLA 370 IBLA 81-539 recreation is properly construed to require outstanding opportunities for either solitude or a primitive and unconfined type of recreation; both need not be present in an inventory unit to allow the unit to enter the study phase of the wilderness review process.

Inquires should be addressed to: 312 Montezuma Avenue, Santa Fe, NM 87501 The Shrinking Sagebrush Sea Executive Summary In the sagebrush lands of the West… the natural landscape is eloquent of the interplay of forces that have created it. It is spread before us like the pages of an open book in which we can read why the land is what it is and why we should preserve its integrity. But the pages lie unread. Rachel Carson ● Silent Spring (1962) Despite its size, the Sagebrush Sea (scientifically known as “sagebrush steppe”) is one of the most endangered landscapes in North America. The Sagebrush Sea has been reduced in area by as much as 50 percent since European settlement. Livestock grazing, natural gas and oil development, agricultural conversion, roads, fences, powerlines and pipelines, off-road vehicle use, urban sprawl, mining, unnatural fire, and invasive weeds are fragmenting or degrading much of what remains. Greater sage-grouse are a sagebrush obligate species whose range has been significantly reduced with the loss of sagebrush steppe.

D1.'O"Woft ofWCller~ TO THE CITIZENS OF THE STATE OF NEVADA This Report constitutes a part of the State Water Planning effort and was prepared cooperatively by the Division of Water Resources, the Agricultural Experiment Station, University of Nevada, Reno, and the soil Conser­ vation Service, United States Department of Agriculture. The statewide reconnaissance soil survey is designed to furnish basic soil data needed to evaluate a variety of potential uses. Soil Hydrologic Groups, Soil Materials Sources, Soil Erosion Potential and Soil Irrigability Classes are among the several interpretive evaluations made in Railroad Valley as a result of the survey. The soils of the Railroad Valley area were identified~ mapped, and named according to the U. S. Comprehensive System of Soil Classi­ fication. In addition to being used in the development of the State Water Plan, the progressive reconnaissance soil sur­ vey will also contribute to an eventual soil map of Nevada which will be a basic resource data source for state, re­ gional and local land evaluation and development planning.
