BLM UT Other Related Lands (Polygon)

These feature classes represent the spatial extent and boundaries of BLM National Landscape Conservation System (NLCS) Other Related Lands within the BLM Administrative State of Utah. These lands include those that are not in Wilderness or Wilderness Study Areas, but have been determined to have wilderness character through inventory or land use planning. These lands fall into one of two categories. The first category are lands with "wilderness value and characteristics". These are inventoried areas not in Wilderness or Wilderness Study Areas that have been determined to meet the size, naturalness, and the outstanding solitude and/or the outstanding primitive and unconfined recreation criteria. The second category are "wilderness characteristic protection areas". These are former lands with "wilderness value and characteristics" where a plan decision has been made to protect them. Quality control is conducted annually.
