U.S. Department of Interior Fiscal Year 1999 Accountability Report.

PB2008109235

Publication Date	2000
Page Count	161
Abstract	The Department of the Interior is America's principal conservation agency. Interior serves as steward for approximately 436 million acres of America's public lands and for the natural and cultural resources associated with these lands. These assets are valued for their environmental resources, recreational and scenic opportunities, cultural and historical resources, vast open spaces, and the resource commodities and revenue they provide to the federal government, states, and counties. Interior also supervises mineral leasing and operations on more than 634 million acres of mineral estate that underlie both federal and other surface ownerships. Since Congress created the Department in 1849, Interior's role has evolved from being a general housekeeper for the federal government to becoming the steward for its natural and cultural resources and the administrator of its trust responsibilities to American Indians and Alaska Natives. The mission of the Department of the Interior is to protect and provide access to our Nation's natural and cultural heritage and honor our trust responsibilities to tribes. This mission is achieved through hundreds of programs and activities carried out principally by Interior's eight bureaus.
