Appraisal ServicesAbout UsOn November 12, 2003, the consolidation and transfer of the real estate appraisal function to one office under the National Business Center (NBC) was announced. The NBC Directorate, Appraisal Services (ASD) was created through the consolidation of appraisers from four other DOI Bureaus: Bureau of Land Management (BLM), Bureau of Reclamation (BOR), U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS), and National Park Service (NPS).
