SUMMARY: The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) intends to temporarily
close, in Clark County, Idaho: (1) All roads and trails except three
designated access roads on BLM managed public lands within the 29,468
burned acres of the Deep Fire (F658) to all motorized vehicles; and (2)
any camping on such lands within the burn area.
DATES: The closure took effect on October 21, 2003 and will remain in

the Deep Fire (F658), which burned this area in July and August of

and noxious weed invasion. Exceptions are granted to the following:

administratively approved access for actions such as monitoring,
research studies, and access to private lands and any other actions
will be considered on a case-by-case basis by the BLM Field Manager,

to existing roads and two track trails. The closure is in accordance
with 43 CFR
