SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 15-member Western Oregon RAC advises the 
Secretary of the Interior, through the BLM, on a variety of public-land 
issues across public lands in Western Oregon, including the Coos Bay, 
Medford, Northwest Oregon, and Roseburg Districts and part of the 
Lakeview District. On May 12, the RAC will follow up on the recreation 
fee proposal in the Coos Bay District and discuss the process and next 
steps for reviewing Secure Rural School Title II funding projects. 
Title II funds support restoration projects that may not otherwise have 
been completed, such as the improved maintenance of existing 
infrastructure, enhancement of forest ecosystems, and restoration of 
land health and water quality. In turn, these projects create 
additional employment opportunities in western Oregon communities and 
foster collaborative relationships between those who use public lands 
and those who manage them. On May 13, the RAC will visit Upper Table 
Rocks and the Anderson Butte Area to review Title II projects related 
to recreation improvements, youth employment, hazardous fuels 
reduction, and illegal dumping.
    Members of the public are welcome to attend the field tour and must 
provide their own transportation and meals. Individuals who plan to 
attend must RSVP to the BLM Medford District Office at least 2 weeks in 
advance of the field tour (see FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT). Please 
indicate whether you need special assistance, such as sign language 
interpretation or other reasonable accommodations. The field tour will 
follow current Centers for Disease Control and Prevention COVID-19 
guidance regarding social distancing and mask wearing.
    The meetings are open to the public, and a public comment period 
will be held on May 12, 2022, at 11:30 a.m. Depending on the number of 
persons wishing to comment and the time available, time allotted for 
individual oral comments may be limited. The public may submit written 
comments to the RAC by emailing the RAC coordinator (see ADDRESSES).
    Before including your address, phone number, email address, or 
other personal identifying information in your comment, you should be 
aware that your entire comment--including your personal identifying 
information--may be made publicly available at any time. While you can 
ask us in your comment to withhold your personal identifying 
information from public review, we cannot guarantee that we will be 
able to do so.
    Previous minutes, membership information, and upcoming agendas are 
available at: https://www.blm.gov/get-involved/resource-advisory-council/near-you/oregon-washington/western-oregon-rac. Detailed minutes 
for the RAC meetings are also maintained in the Medford District Office 
and will be available for public inspection and reproduction during
