The organizational and demographic profiles of the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), within the Department of the Interior, and the Forest Service, within the Department of Agriculture, are very similar in many respects. The similarities include the agencies' missions and goals, the amount of land managed, the purposes for which the land is managed, the types of employees hired, and the location and types of offices maintained. These similarities present opportunities for increasing the cooperation and coordination between the agencies. In March 1996, the Forest Service and BLM announced what they refer to as their Service First initiative, which is aimed at improving customer service and promoting efficiencies and economies in their operations through steps ranging from sharing personnel to colocating offices. The agencies initiated pilot projects in Colorado and Oregon to provide the public with "one-stop shopping" for the services provided by the agencies. The Congress initially provided the Forest Service and BLM the authority to exercise each other's authorities, duties, and responsibilities (known as cross-delegation of authority) in the pilot locations until fiscal year 2002 to assist the agencies in achieving the goals of the initiative. On October 11, 2000, the cross-delegation of authority was extended agency wide through fiscal year 2005.

Broad discretion is granted at all levels throughout federal land management agencies regarding compliance with the National Environ. Policy Act (NEPA). The authors explored the diversity of procedures employed in NEPA processes across four agencies, the Forest Service, the Nat. Park Service, the Bureau of Land Management, and the U.S. Army Corps of Eng. There is a lack of consistency not only between, but also within, agencies with regard to how NEPA is implemented. This report focuses on how successful NEPA processes are defined within each agency and what strategies are the most or least beneficial to positive NEPA outcomes. Also identifies unresolved questions about NEPA processes and presents a research strategy for addressing them.

The federal government is running huge budget deficits, spending too much, and heading toward a financial crisis. Federal spending soared under President George W. Bush, and the costs of programs for the elderly are set to balloon in coming years. Hurricane Katrina has made the federal budget situation even more desperate. In Downsizing the Federal Government Cato Institute budget expert Chris Edwards provides policymakers with solutions to the growing federal budget mess. Edwards identifies more than 100 federal programs that should be terminated, transferred to the states, or privatized in order to balance the budget and save hundreds of billions of dollars. Edwards proposes a balanced reform package of cuts to entitlements, domestic programs, and excess defense spending. He argues that these cuts would not only eliminate the deficit, but also strengthen the economy, enlarge personal freedom, and leave a positive fiscal legacy for the next generation. Downsizing the Federal Government discusses the systematic causes of wasteful spending, and it overflows with examples of federal programs that are obsolete and mismanaged. The book examines the budget process and shows how policymakers act contrary to the interests of average Americans by favoring special interests.
