Eastern States Plans in Development

The BLM develops comprehensive land use plans to guide management decisions and actions on public land and resources. In Eastern States, the BLM uses these plans to manage approximately 40,000 acres of scattered surface parcels and 39 million acres of Federal mineral estate in 31 states east of and bordering the Mississippi River. The BLM relies on public input and engaging with partners, like the U.S. Forest Service, to develop and implement these plans and fulfill its multiple use and sustained yield mission.
