White Sands National Monument. 2004. Fire Management Plan: White Sands National Monument, New Mexico. White Sands National Monument. Holloman AFB, NM
All units of the National Park Service with vegetation capable of sustaining fire are required to develop a Fire Management Plan. This plan describes in as detailed a manner as possible those actions that will be taken by White Sands National Monument in meeting the fire management goals for the area. An environmental assessment (EA) was completed in 2003 with a Finding Of No Significant Impact Statement (FONSI) signed in 2004 for compliance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969. This EA is included as Appendix A. Compliance with the National Historic Preservation Act and consultation with the New Mexico State Historic Preservation Office is documented in Appendix B. Prescribed burns will have site specific compliance work completed prior to project implementation. This will include biological assessments and cultural/historical site surveys as appropriate.
