This information bulletin announces the availability of and describes the recent updates to the Rights-of-Way Designation Areas Data Standard Data Standard Version 3.
This dataset represents areas where rights-of-way (ROW) granted by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) are not allowed (excluded), allowed with special considerations (avoidance), or generally permitted (corridor). All BLM surface jurisdiction lands are covered by one of these ROW designation areas. The designations are determined through the land use planning process as documented in a Resource Management Plan (RMP).
This dataset is used for depicting the ROW designation areas on maps, for overlaying in GIS with other data themes, and for determining feasibility and impact of project proposals.

- Reformatted document to meet Section 508 standards and match the latest data standard template.
- Updated General Information section to add language that was previously in a different section of the document.
- Updated FOIA category, records retention schedule text, and keywords.
- Updated architecture diagrams.
- Added field aliases, edit tracking fields, default values for required fields, and constraint rules.
- Modified BLM_ORG_CD to show it is auto calculated on data entry.
- Added attribute rules to editing procedures.
- Changed document cover photo.
