Effects of Off-Highway Vehicles on Bureau of Land Management Lands: A
Literature Synthesis, Annotated Bibliographies, Extensive Bibliographies,
and Internet Resources
Executive Summary
This report and its associated appendixes compile and synthesize the results
of a comprehensive literature and Internet search conducted in May 2006.
The literature search was undertaken to uncover information regarding
the effects of off-highway vehicle (OHV) use on land health, or “natural
resource attributes,” and included databases archiving information
from before OHVs came into existence to May 2006. Information pertaining
to socioeconomic implications of OHV activities is included as well. The
literature and Internet searches yielded approximately 700 peer-reviewed
papers, magazine articles, agency and non-governmental reports, and internet
websites regarding effects of OHV use as they relate to the Bureau of
Land Management’s (BLM) standards of land health. Discussions regarding
OHV effects are followed by brief syntheses of potential indicators of
OHV effects, as well as OHV-effects mitigation, site-restoration techniques,
and research needs.
