The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) manages 8.4 million acres of public lands in Colorado. These lands are managed for a multitude of uses including, but not limited to, recreation, energy production, mining, wildlife habitat and livestock grazing. Along with these 8.4 million acres, BLM Colorado oversees 27.3 million subsurface acres for mineral development. BLM Colorado employees are working hard with our partners, stakeholders, customers, elected officials, and the general public to restore and maintain the health of Colorado's public lands.
