BLM Issues New Rules Governing OHV Use in Hot Well Dunes Recreation Area in Arizona

July 9, 2009 – BLM has published final supplementary rules for the Hot Well Dunes Recreation Area located in Graham County, Arizona, which is managed by the Gila District and Safford Field Office.  BLM states that the new rules are necessary to reduce threats to public health, safety and property.  The rules relate to OHV rider capacity, safety flags, speed limits and vehicle use among others.  For example, OHV riders may only ride on permanent, regular seats attached to the OHV and may not carry additional persons on an OHV unless the vehicle is designed and manufactured to carry additional persons.  These rules become effective on August 10, 2009.
