Protecting Nevada's natural, cultural, and recreational resources. From the banks of the Colorado River in the south, to the high deserts of Elko County in the north; from the waters of Lake Tahoe in the west, to the limestone geology of the east. Nevada's natural diversity and abundance is second to none. Preserving, protecting and enhancing these wonders is the responsibility of more than 900 employees. Through their dedication Nevada continues to be one of the wealthiest states in the nation in terms of historic and natural resources. Carson City, Nevada
