It was later merged with the General Land Office to form the Bureau of Land Management . History When the Taylor Grazing Act was passed in 1934 by the UnitedStates Congress , an office under the Department of the Interior was also created to manage the act. It was first called the Division of Grazing , but later was renamed the U.S. Grazing Service in 1939. Its responsibilities were to enforce the act, which leased public lands to farmers and ranchers for grazing. The Grazing Service encountered multiple problems, such as very low fees to lease land, which could not be raised due to opposition from farmer s, budget reductions enacted by Congress, or unlawful use of the lands. Hoping to better control improper use of the lands, the Grazing Service moved its headquarter s from Washington, D.C. to Salt Lake City, Utah . With so much conflict surrounding the Grazing Service, the UnitedStates Secretary of the Interior Secretary of the Interior combined the Grazing Service and the General Land Office to form the Bureau of Land Management BLM in 1946.
