SUMMARY: The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) announces an extension of

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The original Notice of Availability was 
published September 30, 2006, and provided for comments on the Ring of

the Ring of Fire Draft RMP/EIS will now be accepted through January 30, 
2006.

Henri R. Bisson,
State Director.
