The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is proposing to implement an integrated pest management (IPM) program at Provolt and Sprague Seed Orchards. In compliancewith the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of 1969, BLM has prepared this environmental impact statement (EIS), which assesses three action alternatives and the no action alternative: Alternative A-Maximum Production IPM. Pests would be managed using allidentified biological, chemical, prescribed fire, cultural, and other pest control methods. Alternative B-IPM with Environmental Protection Emphasis (Proposed Action).Pests would be managed using all of the methods in Alternative A, with limitations designed to protect worker health and safety and the environment. The limitations are based on the conclusions of a recent risk assessment, scoping comments, and recommendations from BLM interdisciplinary team members. Alternative C-Non-Pesticide Pest Management. Pests would be managed usingonly the non-pesticide biological, prescribed fire, cultural, and other methods listed under Alternative A. No biological or chemical pesticide methods would bepermitted. Alternative D-No Action: Continuation of Current Management Approach. The current management system uses all non-chemical-pesticide pest control practices at the seed orchards, as well as chemical pesticides on a case-by-case basis. All biological, prescribed fire, cultural, and other methods would be used in accordance with current procedures.
