General Information

The Southern Nevada Public Land Management Act (SNPLMA) became law in October, 1998. It allows the Bureau of Land Management SNPLMA Web Site to sell public land within a specific boundary around Las Vegas, Nevada. Proceeds from those sales are then made available for certain types of projects. In November 2003, the Act was amended to direct $300 million, or $37.5 million each year over the next eight years, to Lake Tahoe for implementation of the  Federal Environmental Improvement Program. Projects that are funded by SNPLMA are submitted each year to the Secretary of Interior for approval.
