Description:

Boundaries of federal lands (parks, forest, tribal, refuges, etc.) 

Abstract:

    This coverage and database contain the boundaries of federal lands          
    in Region 8. The data describe the type of lands and the sub                
    ecoregion in which the land is located.                                     
                                                                                

Purpose:

    ArcInfo and related software.                                                        
                                                                                
     Intended use of data:                                                   
    Mapping of federal lands

Limitations_of_Data:
    The boundaries in Colorado are more comprehensive than all other            
    states. Also note that BLM lands are not included in this coverage.         
                                                                                
Procedures:
    These data and boundaries were retrieved from the internet from             
    ArcUSA by the EPA Data Integration Office.
