BLM Heritage Resources Publications


BLM lands contain the largest, most diverse, and scientifically most important body of cultural resources of any Federal land managing agency. These resources represent the tangible remains of at least 13,000 years of human adaptation to the land. BLM is guided in its management of cultural resources by policies and procedures contained in its comprehensive 8100 Manual series and supplementary Handbook on tribal consultation. In 1997, BLM entered into a Programmatic Agreement (PA) with the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation (Council) and the National Conference of State Historic Preservation Officers (NCSHPO), which established the framework under which BLM carries out its responsibilities under Sections 106, 110(f), and 111(a) of NHPA.
