BLM report: $86.2 million The Bureau of Land Management made direct payments of $4 0. 1 million to Utah in 1994, while investing another $46.1 million in services to the state, according to BLM acting director Mike Dombeck. The combined figure of $86.2 million in direct transfers and services compares with the $71.2 million in d revenues from lands in Utah in 1994. The information is contained in a detailed report released by the BLM titled Public Rewards from Public Lands. This new report will help the American people understand that our public lands' are a national asset, rich in cultural, natural and scenic resources, Dombeck ' said. We manage these lands for multiple uses, which means that every American benefits. And thats why it is so important that we pass this heritage on to future generations. The BLM received revenue from a variety of activities on the public lands in Utah, including fees from recreation, mineral extraction, livestock grazing and timber sales. In 1994, revenue from Utah totaled $71.2 million, which was shared with the state. Direct financial transfers to Utah included $8.8 million under the Payment in Lieu of Taxes program, which compensates local governments for lost property taxes. In addition, the BLM funds programs that benefit Utah through a wide variety of services on public lands in the state. These include firefighting, mineral leasing and the upkeep of recreational facilities. In 1994, the BLMs funding of such programs in Utah totaled $46.1 million. The BLMs report makes clear why Utah comes out a winner when the public lands BLM-manage- are held in trust and managed by the BLM, said The reason is simple. Federal Dombeck. taxpayers across the nation, not just the citizens of Utah, pay for the BLMs stewardship of the public lands within Utahs borders. And thats only fitting, since these public lands belong to all Americans. The BLM, an agency within the U.S. Department of the secret!
