Where we work

The federal land record, county by county, across the West.

84 counties in 10 states where geothermal, transmission, and telecom activity is real enough to write about. Every number is pulled live from BLM's Mineral & Land Records System against the Census county boundary, current to September 2026. We run land, title, and right-of-way acquisition in all of them.
