Land management


The recent headline in the Salt Lake Tribune just about says it all, "William Perry Pendley, opponent of nation’s public lands, is picked to oversee them as acting head of BLM."
He argued in a 2016 National Review article that the "Founding Fathers intended all lands owned by the federal government to be sold."
Readers interested in public lands will probably be watching this story unfold for a while.After all, this puts him in charge of about 250 million acres. By my rough math, that is an area larger than all of Texas and New Mexico combined.
