At this time there are several removals and projects currently under “comment” period for public input. WHE will issue sample comments on each in the next few days. The current roundup schedule has NOT been posted. WHE is in the process of creating a schedule to make sure that someone is at roundup operations and we need your donations to get the trucks on the road.
Each area for a comment will receive a unique posting within days of “due date.”

“SAM” eco-sanctuary, Elko District BLM: scoping comments due 9/19
This project is currently in the “scoping” phase. That means that comments submitted by the public that address concerns and make suggested alternatives are being accepted by the Elko District of BLM. Those comments will in turn be utilized in drafting an EIS (Environmental Impact Statement) that will present three alternatives to the public for comment.
Written comments accepted until September 19th: Interested individuals should send written comments to the BLM Elko District Office, Wells Field Office, 3900 E. Idaho Street, Elko, NV 89801, Attn:
Wild Horse Eco-Sanctuary, or fax at (775) 753-0385. Comments may also be submitted to the project e-mail address: EcoSanctuaryComments@blm.gov.
