Answer:
Land conservation is the process of protecting natural land and returning developed land to its natural state. Due to the fact that some land has only had minor disturbances and other land has been completely destroyed, a variety of techniques are needed to carry out land conservation. Some of the most common techniques include preservation, restoration, remediation, and mitigation.

Conservation lands in the United States vary in term of ownership and purpose. National Wildlife Refuges are oriented toward fish and wildlife conservation (National Wildlife Refuge System Improvement Act 1997) and National Parks toward preservation (An Act to Establish a National Park Service 1916). Bureau of Land Management lands and National Forests are managed for multiple purposes including conservation, recreation, and the sustained yield of natural resources (Sundry Civil Appropriations Act 1897; Federal Land Policy and Management Act, 1976). Other legislation also influences how lands are managed. The Wilderness Act of 1964 requires that land be managed with minimal human intervention.
