To Whom It May Concern:
Pursuant to the Government Records Access and Management Act, I hereby request the following records:
A copy of the database where BLM records reports of unauthorized use, e.g. trespass grazing, for the lands it administers. This request seeks records produced by the BLM Utah state office, and/or its field offices. It seeks a spreadsheet or copy of the database for all reports of unauthorized use that occurred between January 1, 2024 and December 31, 2024. For an example of a screenshot of the database in question, see the attached document.
