federal lands answering questions
Review this Powerpoint presentation that is an oldie but goodie from my mentor Julie Phillips. It reviews the three levels of federally protected lands. We touched lightly on this in the mapping assignment last week. This week we will learn more about the differences between the groups. While reviewing the presentation look at the differences between the groups and notice the agencies and names that we have already seen before.
