BLM ACTION CENTER
Protecting and conserving Bureau of Land Management lands across the western United States.
About the BLM Action Center
The Action Center's mission is to protect America's wild lands and open spaces by helping people participate in decision-making processes that will shape the future of BLM lands such as Utah's canyon country, Colorado's Roan Plateau and Montana's Upper Missouri River Breaks. Get involved by subscribing to our monthly email newsletter.
The Action Center provides direct support, offers training workshops and serves as a clearinghouse for information about BLM land use planning. The Action Center is used by journalists, advocacy groups, and the public. Email us for more information or call us at 303-650-5818.
