Wilderness in Nevada

The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) has been managing a wilderness program since 1976, when the President signed a law which directed the agency to conduct a study of its remaining roadless areas. Many citizens have been involved in this study, and a great deal of interest has been expressed concerning the future management of these undeveloped lands.

What is BLM's wilderness program all about and what does the future hold? We would like to give you an update on where we have been and where we are headed.

Remember, these public lands are your lands, and we hope you will join with us in protecting their natural beauty until final wilderness decisions are made by Congress. Should you have questions about the wilderness program after you finish reading this website, we hope that you will contact one of our offices. We would like to talk with you.
