National and state BLM offices

The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) was established in 1946 through the consolidation of the General Land Office and the Grazing Service. BLM manages about 245 million surface acres and 700 million sub-surface acres of mineral property. BLM lands are used for energy production, recreation, rangeland, and wild horses and burros.
