The Commercial Leasing program collects revenue from business leases, billboard leases, gas storage units and land sales; acquires new assets by exchanging lands with local, state and federal governments, industrial and commercial developers, and private landowners; and advances the trust's community and business development portfolio.

 

The leasing program manages 782 active commercial leases across 403,622 acres of trust lands, and in fiscal year 2009 generated $6.5 million for the trust beneficiaries.
