SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Federal Land Policy and Management 

Act of 1976 (FLPMA) (43 U.S.C. 1739) 

directs the Secretary of the Interior 

(Secretary) to involve the public in 

planning and issues related to 

management of lands administered by 

the BLM. Section 309 of FLPMA directs 

the Secretary to establish 10- to 15- 

member citizen-based advisory councils 

that are consistent with the Federal 

Advisory Committee Act (FACA). The 

rules governing RACs are found at 43 

CFR subpart 1784. As required by 

FACA, RAC membership must be 

balanced and representative of the 

various interests concerned with the 

management of the public lands. These 

include three categories: 

Category One—Holders of Federal 

grazing permits or leases within the area 

for which the council is organized, and 

representatives of organizations 

associated with energy and mineral 

development, commercial timber 

industry, transportation or rights-ofway, developed outdoor recreation, offhighway vehicle use, and commercial 

recreation; 

Category Two—Representatives of 

nationally or regionally recognized 

environmental organizations, 

archaeological and historical 

organizations, dispersed recreational 

activities, and nationally or regionally 

recognized wild horse and burro interest 

groups; and 

Category Three—Representatives of 

State, county, or local elected office; 

representatives and employees of a State 

agency responsible for management of 

natural resources, land or water; 

representatives of Indian tribes within 

or adjacent to the area for which the 

council is organized; representatives of 

academia who are employed in natural 

resource management or the natural 

sciences; and representatives of the 

affected public-at-large. 

Individuals may nominate themselves 

or others. Nominees must be residents 

of the BLM district in which the RAC 

has jurisdiction. The BLM will evaluate 

nominees based on their education, 

training, experience, and knowledge of 

the geographical area of the RAC. 

Nominees should demonstrate a 

commitment to collaborative resource 

decision-making. The Obama 

Administration prohibits individuals 

who are currently federally registered 

lobbyists to serve on all FACA and nonFACA boards, committees, or councils. 

An individual may not serve 

concurrently on more than one RAC. 

The following must accompany all 

nominations: 

—Letters of reference from represented 

interests or organizations; 

—A completed background information 

nomination form; and 

—Any other information that addresses 

the nominee’s qualifications. 

If you have already submitted your 

nomination materials for 2010, you will 

not need to resubmit. 

Certification Statement: I hereby 

certify that the BLM’s New Mexico 

RACs are necessary and in the public 

interest in connection with the 

Secretary’s responsibilities to manage 

the lands, resources, and facilities 

administered by the BLM. 

Linda S.C. Rundell, 

State Director.
