The Bureau of Land Management has drafted a new version of its West Mojave off-road vehicle plan, or WEMO, which has added a “street-legal only” option. This option would exclude most ORVs on neighborhood streets. Residents need to understand how these different options would affect them and register their views with the BLM. Even if you commented on the 2016 version of WEMO, you still need to respond to this new version. Managing editor Tami Roleff has information about a drop-in letter-writing event where you can express your views on the new ORV routes and options…
If you’re concerned about the BLM’s plan to open off-road vehicle routes in residential neighborhoods adjacent to private property, come to a drop-in letter writing event Saturday June 2, between 9 and 11 a.m., at the Wonder Valley Community Center, 80526 1/2 Amboy Road, in Wonder Valley. Volunteers will help you identify proposed routes and write an effective letter. Alternate viewpoints are welcome. The BLM can benefit from public input on how best to manage public land in San Bernardino County. The deadline for public comment is June 14, 2018. If you’re unable to attend the drop-in, more information is available at http://www.orvwatch.com/; click on the “WEMO” tab to find the latest resources.
