The BLM in recent years has seen institutional knowledge leave the bureau primarily through retirements in areas related to energy development,cultural and natural resource areas. Attrition,lack of predictable and sustained funding levels in program areas and significant administrative time it takes to hire, has made it difficult for the BLM to provide mentoring,overlap in positions,and successional planning.
