These data support a study with the purpose of better understanding science and data use in Federal public lands decisions in the United States. To do this, we assessed the number, type, and age of documents cited in 70 Environmental Assessments (EAs) completed by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) in Colorado from 2015-2019. We focused on the BLM, as they manage the largest area of public lands in the United States. We selected Colorado as our study area, as actions proposed on BLM lands in Colorado are representative of those across the nation. These data resulted in a peer-reviewed publication.
