The Division of Land Management operates under the broad policy and administrative direction of the Board of Land and Natural Resources. The Division has the responsibility for the staff work required to enable the Board to manage public lands. The main functions of the Division are the management, acquisition, disposition of public lands; and the collection and maintenance of public records and documents, such as land patents and leases issued by the Department of Land and Natural Resources. The principal activity of the Division is the disposition of public lands by sales in fee, by lease, or by revocable permit.
