This BLM web page covers Golden Oaks Springs, it's one page of several in
the document:

*Chapter 12 - Special Management Area Descriptions
South Sierra Management Plan - *


http://www.blm.gov/ca/st/en/fo/bakersfield/Programs/planning/rmpcontents/rmppct.3.html

It's under Bakersfield management according to the line above the title.

Hope this provides a start,
- armchair
