Bureau Of Land Management

The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is a U.S. government agency within the Department of the Interior responsible for administering public lands. BLM manages approximately 245 million acres of public land, primarily in the western United States, overseeing activities such as energy development, livestock grazing, recreation, and conservation. Established in 1946 through the merger of the General Land Office and the Grazing Service, BLM generates revenue through land leases, permits, and royalties from natural resource extraction. Key historical milestones include the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976, which emphasized sustainable land use and conservation.
