Abstract
This article will center upon the conflict of congressional policy created by the wilderness provisions of FLPMA and the selection and use of lands granted to the states upon admission to the Union. The recent Utah v. Kleppe decision as well as the legislative history of FLPMA will be investigated to determine the strength of the states' position that statehood entitlements should be given consideration over wilderness demands on the federal public domain. Finally, the article will consider alternative resolutions which would reconcile conflicting state and federal claims to use of the public domain.
