The Steppe Forward Series is a suite of broadcasts designed to provide a general overview of the BLM's approach to Greater Sage-Grouse (GRSG) management.
Over the past several years, the BLM has led an unprecented West-wide planning effort to protect the 10-state "sagebrush sea" that is home to the greater sage-grouse. This series of broadcasts describes how the BLM will move forward in implementing these plans.
