Overview
People use high-recreation-value public lands in increasing numbers, helping support local businesses and economies in many places in the Intermountain West. In addition to boosting local and regional economies, intact public lands attract highly qualified employees, who value outdoor experiences, to the recreation industry. Public Lands Solutions helps these businesses advance policies that affect how public lands are managed for recreation opportunities. This grant will support their efforts to engage businesses in the Intermountain West on energy and land protection policies.
