The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is finalizing new rules to protect natural resources and ensure public safety on lands managed by the Colorado River Valley, Grand Junction, and Kremmling Field Offices, as well as the Dominguez-Escalante National Conservation Area in Colorado. These rules include regulations on camping, campfires, target shooting, and mechanized travel, with specific restrictions depending on the location to address concerns such as resource damage, wildlife disruption, and public safety. The rules will take effect on January 18, 2025, and exempt certain federal, state, or local officers acting within their official duties. Violating these rules could lead to fines and imprisonment.

The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is setting up new recreation fee areas in specific parts of the Upper Colorado River, managed by the Kremmling and Colorado River Valley Field Offices, according to the Federal Lands Recreation Enhancement Act. Starting July 7, 2025, fees will be charged for day use, individual and group campsites, and special on-river camping permits to help maintain facilities and services. These fees, ranging from $5 to $75, are intended to ensure that visitors who use the sites contribute to their upkeep. The plan aims to enhance public access and resource protection and is consistent with fees at other federal and private sites.
