In the area of environmental conservation, Staking Out the Terrain provides a fresh approach to the study of bureaucratic behavior by utilizing a synthesis of several methodologies: policy analysis, historical development, the case study, and budgetary analysis.
It formulates a model of agency power focusing on the ability of agencies to expand resources and jurisdiction for environmental control.
A detailed analysis of seven federal agencies provides support for the model. The agencies are:
― the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers,
― the U.S. Forest Service,
― the Bureau of Land Management,
― the National Park Service,
― the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service,
― the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation,
― the U.S. Soil Conservation Service.
