                    The source geometry is from California BLM LND_SurfaceEstate data which illustrates the location of Federal and State managed lands in California and portions northwest Nevada. The data is developed and maintained at the BLM California State Office in Sacramento. Data development efforts focus on accurately depicting the locations of BLM managed lands. Private and non-governmental lands are categorized as unclassified. Other Federal agencies, the State of California , and numerous County governments contribute much of the information and data incorporated into this geodatabase. Data for lands in Nevada were obtained from the Bureau of Land Management, Reno, Nevada.
