FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

*Governor Mark Gordon Applauds BLM Sage-Grouse Plan for Wyoming *

""I’m glad to see the BLM’s plan affirms this Executive Order after a collaborative process with the State.""

*CHEYENNE, Wyo, Dec. 22, 2025 – *Today Governor Mark Gordon (R-WY) received the Record of Decision (ROD) for the Greater Sage-grouse Resource Management Plan Amendment (RMPA) for Wyoming. The ROD recognizes the State’s authority over wildlife and management of the greater-sage grouse. The plan is a result of years-long effort to finalize.  

"“Wyoming has consistently advocated for a finalized Greater sage-grouse RMPA that recognizes the State’s management authority over the species utilizing the best-available science,” Governor Gordon said. “Wyoming has been a leader in the sage-grouse conservation for six decades, and  the State of Wyoming’s Executive Order Greater Sage-Grouse Core Area Protection strategy has spanned three Governors in its foresight to have a state-lead conservation strategy. We will continue to invest in sage-grouse conservation alongside responsible development in Wyoming. I’m glad to see the BLM’s plan affirms this Executive Order after a collaborative process with the State.”"

The Governor’s Sage-Grouse Implementation Team [ [link removed] ], established by statute to work collaboratively to protect the Greater sage-grouse under the State of Wyoming's Sage-Grouse Executive Order (2019-3) will meet at 10 a.m. Jan. 8 [ [link removed] ] at the Game and Fish Headquarters in Cheyenne.
