When the BLM and the public work together to identify appropriate uses and protective measures, our lands can be managed more effectively. This collaborative approach allows for input from local communities and others who care about the future of our last wild places.
The BLM develops Resource Management Plans and makes decisions using the best data, research and science available as well as extensive public involvement. RMPs may be revised or amended as the BLM acquires information and knowledge of new circumstances relevant to land and resource values, uses and environmental concerns. This land use planning process is vital to ensuring proper management of our public lands for future generations.
