“BLM Invites Public Opinion on Proposed Kern County Mining Project”

The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is seeking public input on a proposed five-acre mining project in Kern County. BLM, which manages about 245 million acres of public land primarily in 12 western states including Alaska, is responsible for the health, diversity, and productivity of America’s public lands. The bureau also administers 700 million acres of sub-surface mineral estate throughout the nation.

The proposed mining project is part of BLM’s mission to sustain the use and enjoyment of public lands for present and future generations. The project is expected to impact a small portion of the land managed by the BLM, but the bureau is committed to ensuring that all actions taken are in the best interests of the public and the environment.

To gather feedback on the proposed project, BLM has opened a public consultation period. This is an opportunity for individuals, groups, and organizations to express their views and concerns about the mining project. The BLM encourages all interested parties to participate in this process to ensure a wide range of perspectives are considered in the decision-making process.
