| The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is entrusted with the care of 264 million acres of public lands containing many outstanding scenic landscapes. By law, BLM is responsible for managing these public lands for multiple uses. But BLM is also responsible for ensuring that the scenic values of these public lands are considered before allowing uses that may have negative visual impacts. BLM accomplishes this through its Visual Resource Management (VRM) system, a system which involves inventorying scenic values and establishing management objectives for those values through the resource management planning process, and then evaluating proposed activities to determine whether they conform with the management objectives. BLM has established VRM coordinators in each state and provides training in VRM so that this system is implemented effectively throughout the Bureau. The Bureau’s VRM system helps to ensure that the actions taken on the public lands today will benefit the landscape and adjacent communities in the future. For more information about BLM’s VRM system, please contact the National Visual Resource Management Coordinator, Bureau of Land Management, 1849 C St NW (LS-302), Washington, D.C. 20240. BLM’s National Training Center offers educational opportunities in VRM as well as other programs. Course descriptions, schedules, tuition information, and contacts are available at ntc.blm.gov. |
