BMP of Oil and Gas Development

Searching the BMP Database, Bibliography, and Website

The BMP database includes over 8,000 BMP entries from over 400 source documents, with numerous parameters such as topic categories, species identifications, and location information. See below for more information on the Basic and Advanced database search options, as well as an options for searching the Bibliography and website. Go to our Help Page for additional information.

Basic BMP Search

Use the Basic Search for simple searches of the BMP database. The search will match ANY keywords in the text or short title of the BMP. If you would like to refine the basic search, use + in front of words that you would like to see in the search results and - in front of words that you want to eliminate from the results (for example, +sage -grouse would results in BMPs about sage but not sage grouse). The search results will include the short title and full text fields only.
