Energy & Natural Resources
With over 650 million acres of federal land owned and nearly 2.5 million leased, the federal government deals with several types of energy and natural resources through a variety of federal agencies. This module supplies some starting points for research into land, water, mineral, and energy resources themselves.
There is much crossover with the Environment module which focuses on resource usage and protection.
