Whether your project spans miles or sits on a single parcel, Landica helps you secure right-of-way authorizations with confidence.
BLM rights-of-way fall into two general categories. Linear rights-of-way support infrastructure that crosses public lands over distance—connecting points across a broader corridor. Site-type rights-of-way, in contrast, are tied to a single, defined location. Understanding the distinction is key to determining the right approach, the right application, and the right path forward.
Overhead or underground electrical lines used to transmit or distribute power across public and private lands.
Pipelines and utility infrastructure used to transport energy, water, and other resources.
Fiber optic and telecom cables installed overhead or underground to deliver data across public land corridors.
Public and private access roads that connect infrastructure, facilities, and project sites on federal lands.
Substations and interconnection sites that transfer, regulate, and route electricity within the grid.

Answers to common questions about right-of-way, permitting, and federal land strategy for infrastructure and development teams.
Any project intersecting federal land—such as energy, telecom, or transportation—typically requires a right-of-way or use authorization. Early assessment is critical to avoid delays.
The Bureau of Land Management reviews applications for land use, including NEPA compliance, land status checks, and stakeholder coordination. Timelines and requirements vary by project type.
We identify potential obstacles early, align deliverables with agency protocols, and advise on strategy to minimize rework and prevent costly delays.
We offer monthly retainers for ongoing needs, project-based scopes for defined deliverables, and hybrid models for evolving requirements.
We specialize in Western states—Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico, California, Utah, Colorado, Wyoming—but support projects nationwide.
We work with developers, engineering firms, municipalities, tribal governments, and legal teams managing infrastructure on federal land.
