Attention All Vendors 
Conducting Business with BLM

On October 1, 2008, the BLM began the transition to a new financial accounting system. While all existing data is being converted and the new system is being brought on line, the BLM will have only limited ability to pay its vendors. We anticipate this period of limited ability will extend through mid-November 2008. Once a DOI bureau has transitioned to FBMS that bureau will begin using FedConnect. DOI bureaus that have not transitioned to FBMS will continue to use IDEAS EC.

During this period payments to vendors may be delayed. The BLM will make every effort to process payments in accordance with Prompt Pay Act requirements. However, vendors should be prepared for the possibility that payments could be delayed for up to 45 days.

Effective immediately, you may call 877-480-9724 if you have a question regarding the payment of a specific invoice. To read the entire Notice which has additional important information, please click here.             (last modified 10/24/08)

Opinion Editorials

Nine Mile Canyon
Nine Mile Canyon, northeast of Price, offeres a large outdoor gallery of dozens of ancient rock art panels, structures and artifacts spanning thousands of years.

The BLM manages nearly 22.9 million acres of public lands in Utah, representing about 42 percent of the state. Located mostly in western and southeastern Utah, these lands are varied, ranging from rolling uplands to sprawling desert lowlands. Utah’s public lands feature some of the most spectacular scenery in the world, from the snow-capped peaks of remote mountain ranges to colorful red-rock canyons.

The BLM’s first national monument is also located on public lands in Utah. Situated in beautiful red-rock country, the Grand Staircase- Escalante National Monument encompasses nearly 1.9 million acres in the south-central part of the state. The area offers a unique combination of archaeological, historical, paleontological, geological, and biological resources.

BLM Utah manages public lands for a variety of uses. These lands not only provide minerals, energy, and livestock forage, but also natural, historical and cultural resources that the agency is charged with protecting. In addition, Utah’s public lands offer incomparable opportunities to experience solitude and enjoy outdoor recreation.
