This booklet contains statistics about the Bureau of Land
Management in Oregon and Washington. Most of the figures pertain
to fiscal year 1965 (July 1, 1964 to June 30, 1965). For compari­
son, data for the preceding year are usually listed, too. In a
few cases it has been more appropriate to list data on a calendar
year basis.
Facts are given about resource management in each of the ten
Oregon districts and in Washington.

Created in 1849, the Department of the Interior
- a Department of Conservation - is concerned
with the management, conservation, and develop­
ment of the Nation's water, wildlife, mineral, forest,
range, and recreational resources. It also has major
responsibilities for Indian and Territorial affairs.
As the Nation's principal conservation agency,
the Department works to assure that nonrenew.
able resourc('s are developed and used wisely, that
park and recreational resources are conserved for
