The Guide Specifications and Standard Drawings are "intended" to be used in developing projects specific specifications and drawings for inclusion in contract documents in various locations and circumstances by "BLM" personnel. The editing of the Guide Specifications and modifications of the Standard Drawings should be undertaken by professionals knowledgeable in their application. Their publication here does not constitute endorsement of their applicability to any specific project or circumstance; rather they are intended to provide "BLM" field personnel with detailed examples and outlines to assist them in assembly of project specific documents.

The specifications are divided into the following tables. All the documents are in WordPerfect 5.1 format. You can configure your browser to automatically download the file and open it in WordPerfect. You will need to configure WordPerfect as a helper application via your browser preferences - the type is application/wordperfect5.1, using the suffixes wp,wp5 - then tell your browser to handle the file with an application. The application name on AIX would look like xwp %s - the %s is filled in by the browser with the file name you are downloading.
