The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is an important participant in the new Interagency Pass Program which was created by the Federal Lands Recreation Enhancement Act and authorized by Congress in December 2004. In addition to the BLM, participating agencies include the U.S. Department of Agriculture - Forest Service, National Park Service, Fish and Wildlife Service, and Bureau of Reclamation. The pass series is collectively known as the America the Beautiful – National Parks and Federal Recreational Lands Pass. Several types of national passes are available that allow access to BLM and other federal lands managed by the five participating agencies.
