Federal Lands Highway ProgramsThe Office of Federal Lands Highway (FLH) works with numerous agencies. Approximately 30 percent of the land in the United States is under jurisdiction of the Federal government. The federal land management agencies (FLMAs) are: the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA), U.S. Forest Service (USFS), National Park Service (NPS), Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS), Bureau of Land Management (BLM), Military Surface Deployment and Distribution Command (MSDDC), U.S. Army, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACOE), U.S. Navy, Tennessee Valley Authority, and the Bureau of Reclamation (BOR). The FLH also works closely with many State and Territorial partners. The Federal Lands Highway Program (FLHP) is subdivided into five core areas, namely, the Forest Highway (FH) Program, Park Roads and Parkways (PRP) Program, Public Lands Highway Discretionary (PLHD) Program, Indian Reservations Roads (IRR) Program, and the Refuge Roads (RR) Program. The FLHP is administered through partnerships and interagency agreements between FHWA's Office of Federal Lands Highway and FLMAs and Tribal customers. The FLHP also supports other important FLMA partners by providing funding (about $6 million per year total) for integrated transportation planning, bridge inspections and other technical assistance activities. The FLHP was created with the 1982 Surface Transportation Assistance Act (STAA). The primary purpose of the FLHP is to provide funding for a coordinated program of public roads that serve the transportation needs of the Federal lands which are not a State or local government responsibility.
