Abstract:
This data represents the BLM field office boundaries within the states of Arizona, California, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, Utah, Washington, and Wyoming. Polygons have been labeled with the Field Office name.
Purpose:
This layer is intended to be used as a supplemental layer representing the field office
Supplemental_Information:
The data represented in this coverage originated from existing county and other boundaries, which shared common boundaries with the field offices.

Process_Description:
The BLM State Offices produced Arc INFO coverages or shapefiles of district boundaries in a variety of projections, and including different information. These disparate datasets were collected from various BLM FTP sites, converted to Lambert Conformable Conic projection, merged using the "union" geoprocessing command, and attribute data weeded to produce the combined data set.
