  26. Public and Private Lands In the United States land can be either privately or publicly owned. Private land is owned by individual people. Public land is owned by the national, state, or local government. Public and private land are used in different ways.
  27. Public and Private Lands Private Land: For many people, owning land is part of the American dream. If you can afford it, you can buy land for a house, farm, or business. People can buy or sell private land. Other people cannot use private land without the permission of the owner.
  28. Public and Private Lands Public Land: 60 percent of Utah is owned by the national government. The state of Utah also owns a large portion of public land. Public lands are owned by the citizens of the United States, and the government manages the activities that happen there.
  29. Public and Private Lands Public Land: The BLM (Bureau of Land Management) is a federal agency that manages public land. They can say that public land can be used for different purposes, including: Hiking, fishing, boating, camping, visiting historic or archaeological sites, for animal grazing, timber cutting, mining, or it can be left as wilderness.
  30. Public and Private Lands Public Land: Wilderness Congress has set some land aside to preserve it in its natural, wild state. This is called wilderness. Often wilderness areas are chosen because of scenic beauty, wildlife, geologic features, or features of scientific, educational, or historical value. Hiking, camping, fishing, and hunting are permitted in Wilderness areas, but not intrusive or destructive activities are not allowed.
  31. Public and Private Lands Public Land: School Trust Lands When Utah became a state, some land was set aside for schools in Utah to use to make money for education. Utah schools make money from this land in the following ways: Surface: People rent the land for farms, cattle grazing, cutting trees, etc. Mineral: Companies pay to mine the oil, gas, coal, uranium, etc. on Trust land. Sales: Trust land can sometimes be sold for houses, farms, and ranches. If valuable minerals are found there, schools will be given part of the profits. The money from these activities is never spent, but is put in a savings account to earn interest, which goes to public schools in Utah.
