Main, Box 311 Canon City, Colo. 81212 Dear Mr. Clausen, We thank you for the opportunity to commnet on BLM's Wilderness Study Areas in Saguache County. Saguache County does not have an adopted Comprehensive Plan. However, the County has adopted some "Policies on Iiitorgovcrnmeiital Coordination" which stoUe our position on wilderness designations. I've included these policies - see « 1, 2,3,S,7-C, and 12 for the issues that affect wilderness designation. If you should have any questions, feel free to contact us. Sincerely, TCevin Nichols Land Use Administrator KN:Xa Enclosure cc: Gene Vecchia, Area BU^ Manager Saguache County Commissioners SAGUACHE COOrny I^OLICIES ON INTERfiOVERNMENTAL COORniNATION 1. Public lands should be managed under the "multiple use" concept; all existing uses of state and federal lands shall be preserved unless it is clearly undesirable from a economic and environmental standpoint. 2. The County will not agree to any wilderness designation without a thorough analysis of the impact on the local economy, recreational opportunities, and future mineral resource development. 3. Present vehicular access to all areas of the County which are of agricultural, recreational, silvicultural, cormiercial, firewood gathering importance should be maintained provided that such access does not become detrimental to emvironmental resources. 4. New roads through state and federal lands should only be open to the traffic necessary for use of the land. For example, new access to a timber lease should only be open to use by timber industry vehicles and emergency vehicles. The purpose of this policy is to reduce necessary road maintenance. 5. Pr
