This is definitely related to the Dry Lake Solar Energy Zone project.

Excerpts from the Regional Mitigation Strategy for the Dry Lake Solar Energy Zone

Proposed Mitigation Actions and Locations. The Gold Butte ACEC is preliminarily recommended as the best recipient location for regional mitigation from the Dry Lake SEZ. [page 29]

The Gold Butte ACEC was established in the Las Vegas RMP [Resource Management Plan] (BLM 1998). The Las Vegas RMP also specifies the resource constraints of the Gold Butte ACEC, which include: ... Closed to grazing. The resource values found in the Gold Butte ACEC are threatened by: ...trespass livestock grazing [page 30]

The map on page 31 shows that the Gold Butte ACEC includes the Bunkerville Allotment which is where Bundy's ranch is.

Dingy’s rhm, very recently imposed as the head of the BLM, was apparently deeply involved in that “sustainable” energy source development.

So, the Fedcoats do want Bundy’s ranch? He has said he’s the last of 50+ ranchers in the area.

That’s the main reason I could think of 200 armed Fedcoats showing up at the ranch.

Great document find. The map is the best I've seen but doesn't really have enough resolution to see the actual parcels in question.

Clearly the ~20 yr pissing contest has escalated in importance to the gov't in the past few years.

Good work.
