It's almost the end of summer -- and that means it's time for a brand new edition of BLM Facts! The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) in Oregon and Washington is proud to announce the latest BLM Facts, our annual illustrated almanac answering the diverse and detailed questions one may have about public lands in the Pacific Northwest. BLM Facts has lots of numbers, and those figures do tell a story. In most cases, your public lands are located within an hour's drive from where you live or work. You can find an amazing array of resources and opportunities at almost any site you visit. This report has the latest BLM news and updates -- from recently designated wilderness areas and exciting recreation sites to wildlife, cultural, and archaeological programs. BLM Facts also shares information about our management plans, minerals and energy data, forestry numbers, wild horse statistics, and much, much, more. In addition to maintaining our commitment to delivering an updated volume every year, we continue to make improvements such as full-color maps, photos, and a plethora of timely, user-friendly data. You can also read it online in flash, PDF, or download an eBook version at:https://www.blm.gov/documents/oregon-washington/public-room/fact-sheet/2011-blm-factsWe are always looking for feedback. Please send questions and suggestions for future editions of BLM Facts to: m1christ @ blm.gov
