Bureau of Land Management

"I go to nature to be soothed and healed,
and to have my senses put in tune once more."
-- John Burroughs
In 1946, President Harry S. Truman merged the Grazing service with the General Land Office to create The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) within the U.S. Department of the Interior.

The Bureau of Land Management might best be described as a small agency with a big mission and a lot of ground to cover.  As the Nation's largest land manager, the BLM is responsible for more than 260 million acres of public land -- nearly one-eighth of all land in the United States -- and 700 million acres of Federal subsurface mineral estate nationwide.  Most of this public land is located in 12 western states, including Alaska.

The BLM's multiple-use mission it to sustain the health and productivity of the public lands for the use and enjoyment of present and future generations.  The Bureau accomplishes this by managing such activities as outdoor recreation, livestock grazing, mineral development, and energy production, and by conserving natural, historical, and cultural resources on public lands.
