These lands are held to federal ownership under the Shipstead Newton Nolan Act and are located approximately 500 miles from our office location in Milwaukee, WI, which makes management of these islands a challenge.

BLM has been working enter into a challenge cost share agreement to help support and manage recreational use along with educating and reaching out to the public on BLM managed islands.
