Description:
Abstract:
Polygon features for active BLM Field Office Administrative areas.

Purpose:
Polygon features for active BLM administrative unit boundary polygons.  These polygons should represent lower level administrative units known as Field Offices.  Higher level administrative units (District Offices) may be derived from the attribution in this feature class.

Attribute definition:
Parent Admin Code:  This is the parent of the administrative unit being mapped.  An Administrative State may be the parent of District Offices, Field Offices, or other autonomous areas such as National Monuments.  A District Office is the parent of Field Offices.   This attribute may be used to derive the boundaries of the parent administrative unit, and should reflect organizational tiers.  The BLM administrative unit/office that is a combination of Administrative State Code and Administrative Office Code that fully identifies the geographic area which has jurisdiction over the lands.  This is an eight-character code.  In the FPPS Organization Codes, use the last eight characters (e.g. "AK030900" from LLAK030900).  (Logical Attribute:  BLM Organization Unit Parent Identifier.  The identifier for the administrative unit that is a tier above this unit.  The code that indicates the formal grouping of positions at into designated units and the assignment of functions and responsibilities to those units based on the DOI FPPS structure.)

An administrative unit that identifies the state or geographic area which has administrative jurisdiction over lands, and cases.  The land for a case may not be physically located in the associated administrative state.  Only those states that are BLM administrative states are in the domain for this entity. Example: Montana is the Administrative State for public lands in the geographic States of Montana, South and North Dakota.
