As the Nation's principal conservation agency, the
Department of the Interior has responsibility for most of
our nationally owned public lands and natural resources.
This includes fostering the wisest use of our land and
water resources, protecting our fish and wildlife,
preserving the environmental and cultural values of our
national parks and historical places, and providing for the
enjoyment of life through outdoor recreation. The
Department assesses our energy and mineral resources
and works to assure that their development is in the best
interests of all our people. The Department also has a
major responsibility for American Indian reservation
communities and for people who live in Island Territories
under U.S. administration.
