AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management, Interior.

ACTION: Notice of Arizona Resource Advisory Council Meeting.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: In accordance with the Federal Land Policy and Management Act 
of 1976 and the Federal Advisory Committee Act of 1972, the U.S. 
Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management (BLM), Arizona 
Resource Advisory Council (RAC), will meet on September 17, 2009, at 
the Four Points By Sheraton located at 10220 North Metro Parkway East 
in Phoenix from 8 a.m. until 4:30 p.m. Morning agenda items include: 
BLM State Director's update on statewide issues; update on BLM's Four-
Tracks to Solar Energy Development in Arizona, and a presentation on 
the Restoration Design Energy Project; discussion and approval of the 
RAC Annual Work Plan modifications pertaining to the BLM Arizona 
strategies and priorities; update on the Gila Unit Travel Management 
Plan process; RAC questions on BLM District Managers' Reports; and 
reports by RAC working groups. A public comment period will be provided 
at 11:30 a.m. on September 17, 2009, for any interested publics who 
wish to address the Council on BLM programs and business.
    Under the Federal Lands Recreation Enhancement Act, the RAC has 
been designated as the RRAC, and has the authority to review all BLM 
and Forest Service (FS) recreation fee proposals in Arizona. The 
afternoon meeting agenda on September 17 will include a brief review 
and discussion of the Recreation Enhancement Act (REA) Working Group 
Report, and one BLM fee proposal in Arizona. The fee proposal described 
below was presented at the June 25, RAC meeting. However, it was not 
voted on because the RAC lacked a quorum.
    The BLM Kingman Field Office is proposing to increase fees for use 
of its recreation facilities beginning October 1, 2009. The fee sites 
and proposed changes are: (1) Burro Creek Individual Sites ($10 to 
$14), Burro Creek Group Site ($30 to $50), Wild Cow Springs Individual 
Sites ($5 to $8), Wild Cow Springs Group Site ($15 to $20), and Windy 
Point Individual Sites ($4 to $8). The purpose of the BLM fee increase 
is to continue maintenance and improve its campground facilities.
    Following the BLM proposal, the RRAC will open the meeting to 
public comments on the fee proposal. After completing their RRAC 
business, the BLM RAC will reconvene to provide recommendations to the 
RAC Designated Federal Official on the fee proposal and discuss future 
RAC meetings and locations.

DATES: Effective Date: August 14, 2009.
