Logo:  National Public Lands Day, a national environmental education foundation program.

National Public Lands Day (NPLD) is the largest volunteer event for America's public lands. NPLD is held on a Saturday in late September when thousands of Americans volunteer to improve and enhance our nation's public lands.

National Public Lands Day 2012 will officially take place on September 29, 2012. In BLM California, NPLD events will also take place on other days during the fall.  Sign up now to participate in these volunteer opportunities!

Two people overlook the Pacific Ocean from the King Range National Conservation AreaTake a trip up to the Lost Coast - King Range National Conservation Area to bike, hike, birdwatch, hunt or learn about the Range’s natural history. The King Range offers a spectacular meeting of land and sea, certainly its dominant feature. Mountains seem to thrust straight out of the surf; a precipitous rise rarely surpassed on the continental U.S. coastline. King Peak, the highest point at 4,088 feet, is only three miles from the ocean!

BLM manages 15.2 million acres of public lands in California - nearly 15% of the state's land area - and 1.6 million acres in northwestern Nevada.  BLM California also administers 47 million acres of subsurface mineral estate underlying federal surface land, 2.5 million acres underlying privately owned land, and 592,000 acres of Native American tribal land where BLM has trust responsibility for mineral operations. The BLM's multiple-use mission is to sustain the health and productivity of the public lands for the use and enjoyment of present and future generations.  The Bureau accomplishes this by managing such activities as outdoor recreation, livestock grazing, mineral development, and energy production, and by conserving natural, historical, cultural, and other resources on public lands.
