. The California desert, majestic, challenging, and very vulnerable. Deserts. * B. L. M. uieeuc 'PtsuutittCf. eutd "?H,eut<iyewe*tt The tight deadline mandated by Congress for completion of the California Desert Plan caused the emphasis to be shifted from unit-by-unit planning to a comprehensive, desert-wide planning approach. Data collection occupies the first two years of the four-year planning program. Next comes the plan preparation phase, with extensive use of automated data processing. Vast amounts of information must be stored and classified by the Bureau's in-house mini-computer. Socio- economic aspects of the plan are considered concurrently with the resource elements. After all the data is collected and analyzed, specialists in each resource will outline objectives for individual resources and develop recommendations. The final step will involve planners and resource specialists working together to synthesize these recommendations into a comprehensive "draft" plan.

Highlighting this plan are the Desert Ranger Program, the Way Stations Program, and a series of specially tailored educational Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original United States.
