The Bureau of Land Management’s Hollister Field Office will host a workshop Feb. 22 to discuss potential social and economic impacts under alternatives in the BLM’s Clear Creek Management Area draft resource management plan and environmental impact statement, according to the BLM.
The workshop will run from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. at San Juan Oaks Golf Club, 3825 Union Road.
“The goal of the workshop is to provide business leaders, private landowners and local government with information about the draft plan and to help the BLM identify social and economic trends to consider in public land use planning decisions for CCMA,” said Rick Cooper, BLM Hollister Field Office manager, in a statement.
The workshop will include a presentation on economic concepts, the sources of economic data and the processes of economic analysis. Participants will discuss the social and economic values of the region and the role that the BLM public lands in the Clear Creek Management area have in supporting these goals and values, according to the BLM.
Participants will have the opportunity to discuss the social and economic data presented in the draft RMP/EIS and respond to questions about the way public land resources are integrated into the local economy and quality of life, the statement reads.
