Today the federal government owns and manages roughly 635640
million acres of land. Federal lands and resources have been
important in American history, adding to the strength and stature
of the federal government, serving as an attraction and opportunity
for settlement and economic development, and providing a source of
revenue for schools, transportation, national defence, and other
national, state, and local needs. Ownership and use of federal
lands have stirred controversy for decades. This book examines the
conflicting public values concerning federal lands, including the
extent to which the federal government should own land; whether to
focus resources on maintenance of existing infrastructure and lands
or acquisition of new areas; how to balance use and protection; and
how to ensure the security of international borders along the
federal lands of multiple agencies.
