Summary

GAO's Natural Resources Issue Area examined the activities of a variety of entities such as the Department of the Interior, the Department of Agriculture's Forest Service, the Commerce Department's National Marine Fisheries Service, and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. This work generally focuses on: (1) increasing revenues by obtaining a better return for the sale or use of natural resources on federal lands or by eliminating federal subsidies; (2) improving efficiency within and coordination among federal land management agencies; and (3) improving collaboration and consensus building among federal and nonfederal stakeholders to address problems or issues related to natural resources. Organized into seven areas, this bibliography lists the natural resources-related products, issued from January 1991 through December 1995, and it includes a subject index.
