Socioeconomic Impacts of BLM in Alaska
The BLM has the privilege of protecting and maintaining some of the Nation's most unique treasures in Alaska. We manage 75 million acres in Alaska, together with some 220 million acres of federal subsurface minerals. These lands provide for a variety of multiple uses throughout Alaska, all of which contribute to the well-being of local communities through economic activities, social contributions, and land stewardship programs.
Take a look at these socio-economic contributions; we think you'll be pleasantly surprised. In fiscal year 2010, BLM-Alaska contributions include an estimated:
- 1,085 American jobs
- $28.7 million from recreational use
- 612,570 visitors
- $123.2 million from oil and gas
- $1.4 million from timber
