Bureau of Land Management
https://www.blm.gov/The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is an agency within the United States Department of the Interior responsible for administering U.S. federal lands, including all lands in the public domain. Headquartered in Washington, D.C., the BLM oversees more than 247.3 million acres (1,001,000 km2) of land, or one-eighth of the United States's total landmass.
The Bureau was created by 79th United States Congress during the presidency of Harry S Truman in 1946 by combining two existing agencies: the United States General Land Office and the Grazing Service. The agency manages the federal government's nearly 700 million acres (2,800,000 km2) of subsurface mineral estate located beneath federal, state and private lands severed from their surface rights by the Homestead Act of 1862.
