Arizona Featured Partnerships
Partnerships are a vital part of the Bureau of Land Management's mission. We work with partners every day to fulfill our mission.
Check out some success stories from our important partners in Arizona.
Fort Huachuca Sentinel Landscapes
Founded in 2013 by the U.S. Department of Defense, Department of Agriculture, and Department of the Interior, the Sentinel Landscapes Partnership works to empower private landowners, strengthen military readiness, and preserve natural resources. We work with Fort Huachuca and other federal and state agencies to promote compatible land uses that enhance operations and training on Fort Huachuca, while working to:
- strengthen the local economies of adjacent farms and ranches,
- reduce the threat of catastrophic wildfire,
- protect open space,
- and improve habitat and population numbers for threatened, endangered and at-risk species.

Florence Wild Horse and Burro Training
The Arizona Wild Horse and Burro Training and Holding Facility opened at Florence in May 2013. The facility is a partnership between the BLM and Arizona Correctional Industries, through Arizona Department of Corrections. Inmates train wild horses and burros and gain valuable experience working with the animals.

Lake Havasu Fisheries Improvement Program
The Bureau of Land Management Arizona has worked with the Lake Havasu Fisheries Improvement Program (LHFIP) since 1992 to create 875 acres of artificial fish habitat and five barrier-free public fishing piers around Lake Havasu.

Arizona Conservation Partnership
Working together in conservation stewardship, BLM Arizona partners with the Arizona Association of Conservation Districts (AACD) through a specific cooperative agreement, called the Arizona Conservation Partnership. The partnership consists of 54 local, state, Tribal, and federal partners. We work within the partnership to conserve Arizona’s natural resources, open spaces, and wildlife habitats.
