PUBLIC LAND MANAGEMENT

BUREAU OF LAND MANAGEMENT

The Bureau of Land Management is responsible for the conservation, management and development of some 464 million acres of the Nation's public lands. This includes some 289 million acres of federally owned lands located in Alaska.

In addition, the Bureau administers mining and mineral leasing on other federally owned lands, on former Federal lands where minerals have been reserved in public ownership, and on the submerged lands of the Outer Continental Shelf.

The work of the Bureau produces revenue from various sources which is distributed as follows (in millions of dollars):

2. Management of grazing lands.-The 177 million acres of public lands available for grazing which are used by over 26,000 stockmen are managed and protected. Proper management of these lands provides protection from fire, erosion, overuse, unseasonal use and trespass, thereby perpetuating forage resources. The increase in 1966 will accelerate multiple-use management of the public lands, including the management of wildlife habitat. 3. Forestry.-A total of 46 million acres of commercial forest lands and 111 million acres of woodland-type lands are managed. The 1966 program includes the sale of 1.376 billion board feet of timber for anticipated receipts of $38.1 million. The 1966 program will provide for increased fire protection of forested areas.

4. Cadastral surveys.-Surveys are performed to: locate and identify legal boundaries of lands under application for lease or disposal, including submerged lands on the Outer Continental Shelf; assist in the resource management of public lands; provide legal descriptions needed by other Federal agencies; and to permit States to obtain title to lands granted them by law.

5. Soil and moisture conservation.-Public lands in critical condition from erosion are rehabilitated and restored to productivity. Areas infested by halogeton,

6. Fire suppression. Fires are fought on or threatening lands under the jurisdiction of the Bureau of Land Management. During the first 5 months of the current year, costs of suppression approximated $3.2 million. A supplemental appropriation for 1965 is anticipated for separate transmittal.

7. Maintenance of physical facilities. Physical maintenance is provided for about 630 structures used as storehouses, equipment shelters, fire crew barracks and similar purposes. The increase in 1966 will provide for the increasing costs of current and deferred maintenance and for maintenance requirements resulting from construction of additional sanitation and protection facilities.

8. Maintenance of access roads.-Maintenance is provided for access roads on Coos Bay Wagon Road grant lands and on the public lands. The increase in 1966 will provide for the acceleration of repair work to restore roads to usable condition. Preventive as well as corrective maintenance will be performed on nearly 5,800 miles of existing roads.

9. General administration.-Executive direction is provided and services such as financial and personnel management, procurement, management analysis, and internal auditing are performed in support of the programs of the Bureau. The increase in 1966 will provide for expansion in administrative support of enlarged resource management programs, and for augmented staffs to improve administrative systems, especially those that can contribute to better manpower and fund utilization.
