FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

David Briery, BLM California Desert 

District External Affairs (951) 697–5220. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Council is comprised of 15 private 

individuals who represent different 

interests and advise BLM officials on 

policies and programs concerning the 

management of 11 million acres of BLMadministered public land in southern 

California’s Desert District. The Council 

meets in formal session three to four 

times each year in various locations 

throughout the California Desert 

District. Council members serve without 

compensation. Members serve threeyear terms and may be nominated for 

reappointment for an additional threeyear term. The terms of six Council 

members have recently expired. The 

purpose of this notice is to seek 

nominations for individuals to fill those 

positions. 

Section 309 of the Federal Land 

Policy and Management Act (FLPMA) 

directs the Secretary of the Interior 

(Secretary) to involve the public in 

planning and issues related to the 

management of BLM-administered 

lands. The Secretary selects Council 

nominees consistent with the 

requirements of FLPMA and the Federal 

Advisory Committee Act (FACA), which 

require nominees appointed to the 

Council be balanced in terms of points 

of view and representative of the 

various interests concerned with the 

management of the public lands within 

the area for which the Council is 

established. 

The Council also is balanced 

geographically, and the BLM will try to 

find qualified representatives from areas 

throughout the California Desert 

District. The District covers portions of 

eight counties, and includes more than 

11 million acres of public land in the 

California Desert Conservation Area and 

300,000 acres of scattered parcels in San 

Diego, western Riverside, western San 

Bernardino, Orange, and Los Angeles 

Counties (known as the South Coast). 

Public notice begins with the 

publication date of this notice and 

nominations will be accepted until May 

9, 2011. The three-year term would 

begin immediately upon confirmation 

by the Secretary. 

The six positions to be filled include 

one representative of recreation groups 

or organizations, one representative of 

non-renewable groups or organizations, 

one representative of wildlife groups or 

organizations, and three representatives 

of the public-at-large (including one 

elected official). 

Any group or individual may 

nominate a qualified person, based 

upon education, training, and 

knowledge of the BLM, the California 

Desert, and the issues involving BLMadministered public lands throughout 

southern California. Qualified 

individuals also may nominate 

themselves. 

The nomination form may be found 

on the Desert Advisory Council 

webpage: http://www.blm.gov/ca/st/en/ 

info/rac/dac.html. The following must 

accompany the nomination form for all 

nominations:

interests, or organizations, or elected 

officials; 

A completed background information 

nomination form to include the

nomination form may contact the BLM 

California Desert District External 

Affairs staff at (951) 697–5220 to request

Advisory Council members are 

appointed by the Secretary, and will be 

evaluated based on their education, 

training, and knowledge of the BLM, the 

California Desert District, and the issues 

involving BLM-administered public 

lands. 

The Obama Administration prohibits 

individuals who are currently federally 

registered lobbyists to serve on any 

FACA and non-FACA boards, 

committees, or councils.
