This is an update of a live broadcast produced by the BLM National Training Center in April of 2006 to discuss changes between versions 3 and 4 of BLM Technical Reference 1734-6. We have deleted most of that discussion and added in indicators of Rangeland Health and ecological sites. The remaining material from the broadcast has been edited to more closely follow the order of the Rangeland Health Field Course.
