The 10-Year Wilderness Stewardship Challenge was developed by the Chief’s Wilderness Advisory Group (WAG) as a quantifiable measurement of the Forest Service’s success in wilderness stewardship. The goal identified by the Wilderness Advisory Group, and endorsed by the Chief, is to bring each wilderness under Forest Service management to a minimum stewardship level by the year 2014, the fiftieth anniversary of the Wilderness Act. The Challenge was initiated in fiscal year 2005. The Challenge contains ten items that highlight elements of wilderness stewardship. These elements are 1) the natural role of fire, 2) invasive plants, 3) air quality, 4) education, 5) protection of recreational opportunities, 6) recreational site inventory, 7) outfitters

  • Wilderness Act the Wilderness Act of 1964 Established the National Wilderness Preservation System (NWPS) to Designate and Preserve Pristine Undeveloped Lands
    Policy Brief Series Wilderness Act The Wilderness Act of 1964 established the National Wilderness Preservation System (NWPS) to designate and preserve pristine undeveloped lands. President Johnson and Congress recognized the importance of preserving wild lands, including wildlife habi- tat, for future generations of Americans.1 Methods 62 The Wilderness Act defines wilderness as, “an area of undeveloped federal 60 land retaining its primeval character and influence…and which generally appears to have been affected primarily by the forces of nature, with the imprint of man’s work substantially unnotice- able.” Wilderness land does not have to be virgin land, however the land should be returned to a pristine or wild condi- tion before being designated. Only ex- isting federal lands can be chosen for wilderness designation. Congress has the exclusive power to designate wilderness and to change the boundaries or un-designate a wilder- Figure 1.

Wilderness areas are managed by four federal agencies: the U.S. Forest Ser- vice, the Bureau of Land Management, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, and the National Park Service. When an area is designated as wilderness it usually continues to be managed by the same agency; for example a national forest that is designated wilderness continues to be managed by the U.S. Forest Service. Results NWPS designated 54 Wilderness Areas encompassing 9.1 million acres across 13 states at its inception in 1964.

    Description of the Affected Environment 1 3.3 Wyoming East Uranium Milling Region 2 3 3.3.1 Land Use 4 5 As shown on Figure 3.3-1, the Wyoming East Uranium Milling Region encompasses parts of 6 eight counties (Albany, Campbell, Carbon, Converse, Johnson, Natrona, Platte, and Weston), 7 although it predominantly lies within Converse and Campbell counties. This region straddles 8 portions of the Wyoming Basin to the east and the upper part of the Missouri Plateau to the 9 north (U.S. Geological Survey, 2004). In this region, past, current, and potential uranium milling 10 operations are generally found in the four-corner area of Campbell, Converse, Natrona, and 11 Johnson counties, (known as the Pumpkin Buttes District) and in the northern-central part of 12 Converse County (known as the Monument Hill District). The Shirley Basin Uranium District 13 located south of Casper is the past site of a conventional uranium milling facility (Figures 3.3-1 14 and 3.3-2). The geology and soils of these three uranium districts are detailed in Section 3.3.3. 15 16 While 53.3 percent of the land in Wyoming is federal and state public land, land ownership in 17 this region is predominantly private (68 percent) (Table 3.3-1). Within the Wyoming East 18 Uranium Milling Region there are portions of two large tracts of federal land that are managed 19 by the U. S. Forest Service (USFS): 20* 21 e The Thunder Basin National Grassland, which straddles Campbell, Converse, and 22 Weston Counties in the Powder River Basin between the Big Horn Mountains to the 23 west and the South Dakota Black Hills to the east, represents 15 percent of the region.

Antweiler, Douglas W. Rankin, Frederick S. Fisher, Carl L. Long, and J. David Love, U.S. Geological Survey and Carl L. Bieniewski and R. Craig Smith, U.S. Bureau of Mines STUDIES RELATED TO WILDERNESS Under the provisions of the Wilderness Act (Public Law 88-577, September 3, 1964) and related acts, the U.S. Geological Survey and the U.S. Bureau of Mines have been conducting mineral surveys of wilderness and primitive areas. Areas officially designated as "wilderness," "wild," or "canoe" when the act was passed were incorporated into the National Wilderness Preservation System, and some of them are presently being studied. The act provided that areas under consideration for wilderness designation should be studied for suitability for incorporation into the Wilderness System. The mineral surveys constitute one aspect of the suitability studies. The act directs that the results of such surveys are to be made available to the public and be submitted to the President and the Congress. This report discusses the results of a mineral survey of the northern part of the Washakie Wilderness and nearby roadless areas, Shoshone National Forest, Park County, Wyo. The area was established as a wilderness by Public Law 88-577, September 3, 1964. The nearby roadless areas were classified as further planning areas during the Second Roadless Area Review and Evaluation (RARE II) by the U.S.
