Abstract: | The Bureau of Land Management, a federal agency administering more than 72 million ha in the western United States, has often been criticised for allowing excessive livestock grazing and neglecting wildlife, watershed and recreation values on its lands. The first draft of a report by Bureau personnel evaluating the agency's policies in the State of Nevada supports the allegations. Congressional action is necessary to provide the Bureau with broader responsibilities, increased funding and greater authority, all of which are necessary to bring better balance to the Bureau's programme. |
