Description: Many Bureau of Land Management [BLM] water developments are installed for and used principally by range livestock, but as the public lands increase in value for other purposes, more water developments must be adapted to meet specific needs. This publication deals primarily with the adaptation of water developments to wildlife use. This is an important phase of BLM's wildlife habitat improvement and management program and is carried out in close cooperation with the Nevada Fish and Game Commission and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
