Description: This feature class contains polygons for federal salable mineral estate currently closed to mineral material disposal in the proposed management area. These areas include both discretionary and non-discretionary closures. Discretionary closures are identified as closed/unavailable by BLM land use planning actions (RMPs and RMP amendments). Non-Discretionary closures include those areas closed by federal regulation and/or congressional action.
This dataset represents federal mineral status in Wyoming. This dataset is intended to represent federal mineral information on Master Title Plats (MTPs) and other land status records. The geometry of this dataset was constructed from the current version of the Cadastral National Spatial Data Infrastructure (CadNSDI) standardized PLSS for Wyoming. The types of federal mineral reservations are representative of those found on land patents issued in Wyoming.
