BLM Worland Field Office Parking Lot Under Construction
Construction will begin on the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Worland Field Office parking lot on Monday, July 19. Work is expected to be complete in mid-August. The visitor parking lot and the field office will remain open during the construction.
The work on the parking lot is the first phase of a greater renovation of the Worland Field Office. Beginning later in 2010, major exterior and interior renovations to correct structural deficiencies will include the replacement of the roof and the heating and cooling system. Services to the public will not be affected and the field office will remain open throughout the duration of the renovation.
For more information, please contact the Worland Field Office at 307-347-5100.
The BLM manages more than 245 million acres of public land, the most of any Federal agency. This land, known as the National System of Public Lands, is primarily located in 12 Western states, including Alaska. The BLM also administers 700 million acres of sub-surface mineral estate throughout the nation. In Fiscal Year (FY) 2011, recreational and other activities on BLM-managed land contributed more than $130 billion to the U.S. economy and supported more than 600,000 American jobs. The Bureau is also one of a handful of agencies that collects more revenue than it spends. In FY 2012, nearly $5.7 billion will be generated on lands managed by the BLM, which operates on a $1.1 billion budget. The BLM's multiple-use mission is to sustain the health and productivity of the public lands for the use and enjoyment of present and future generations. The Bureau accomplishes this by managing such activities as outdoor recreation, livestock grazing, mineral development, and energy production, and by conserving natural, historical, cultural, and other resources on public lands.
