<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;font-size:12pt"><P><SPAN>This service is a subset of the Surface Management Agency (SMA) Geographic Information System (GIS) dataset. The service depicts only BLM Federal land for the United States. The Cached service is available to the ArcGIS.com tiling scheme level 14 (~1:36K). The Surface Management Agency (SMA) covers the continental United States, Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, Guam, American Samoa and the Virgin Islands. A Federal SMA agency refers to a Federal agency with administrative jurisdiction over the surface of Federal lands. Jurisdiction over the land is defined when the land is either: Withdrawn by some administrative or legislative action, or Acquired or Exchanged by a Federal Agency. This layer is a dynamic assembly of spatial data layers maintained at various federal and local government offices. The GIS data contained in this dataset represents the polygon features that show the boundaries for Surface Management Agency and the surface extent of each Federal agency’s surface administrative jurisdiction. SMA data depicts current withdrawn areas for a particular agency and (when appropriate) includes land that was acquired or exchanged and is located outside of a withdrawal area for that agency. The SMA data do not illustrate land status ownership pattern boundaries or contain land ownership attribute details.</SPAN></P></DIV> |
