BLM Cultural Resource Preservation
FY
2002 Cultural & Fossil Preservation Projects
Executive Summary
The BLM manages the
largest, most diverse and scientifically most important body
of cultural resources of any federal land managing agency.
Natural
threats such as Wildland Fires and other disasters are reducing our opportunities
for interpreting sites, for providing long-term access to properties
valuable to Native Americans and other ethnic groups, for promoting
and facilitating scientific research, and for conserving properties
for the future.
