U.S. Bureau of Land Management

U.S. Bureau of Land Management
The Bureau of Land Management (BLM), a bureau within the Department of Interior, is the largest land management agency in the United States. The BLM's mission is to sustain the health, diversity, and productivity of America's public lands for the use and enjoyment of present and future generations. BLM management objectives, include recreation, wild horse herds, cultural and paleontological resources, leasing oil and gas resources, renewable energy projects and wilderness, to name a few.

The BLM is one of a handful of federal agencies that manage public lands across America. Other federal land management agencies include the National Park Service, the United States Forest Service, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the Bureau of Reclamation.
The BLM was established in 1946. Public lands were distributed as bounty land warrants to veterans and to encourage homesteading and westward migration. The General Land Office was created in 1812 to support this national goal. Over time, values and attitudes regarding public lands shifted, and President Harry S. Truman, by means of a government reorganization, merged the GLO and another agency, the U.S. Grazing Service, creating the BLM.
