Map of BLM Lands and State Office Boundaries.jpg

This image is a reference map from the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) depicting National Land and Subsurface Ownership across the United States as of December 31, 2025. The map displays three distinct categories of federal land management: BLM Surface Ownership (shown in yellow), BLM Administrative State boundaries (shown with brown outlines), and Federal Subsurface Mineral Estate (shown with diagonal hatching). The BLM maintains significant surface land holdings concentrated in the western United States, particularly in California, Nevada, Oregon, Idaho, Utah, Wyoming, Colorado, Arizona, and New Mexico, with additional holdings in Alaska shown in an inset map. The Federal Subsurface Mineral Estate, representing mineral rights held by the federal government beneath surface lands, is distributed across Montana, Wyoming, Utah, Colorado, and New Mexico. The map includes a standard disclaimer stating that the BLM makes no warranty regarding the accuracy, reliability, or completeness of the information displayed for individual or aggregate use with other data. This reference document serves as a visual aid for understanding the geographic distribution of federal land management responsibilities and mineral estate holdings under BLM jurisdiction.
