LANDS, REALTY AND CADASTRAL SURVEY

The BLM’s Lands, Realty and Cadastral Survey Program manages a wide range of public land transactions, such as purchases and acquisitions; sales and exchanges; withdrawals; leases and permits; right-of-way authorizations; and, cadastral survey services. 

From enabling energy development, to permitting commercial filming, to defining boundaries and maintaining public land records, the lands, realty and cadastral survey staff ensure that the public lands are working landscapes that are managed for the use and enjoyment of current and future generations.  Our multiple-use mission enables us to continually facilitate commercial, recreational, and conservation opportunities on public lands.
