What happens to RAC recommendations?

1 Answer

The DFO reviews all recommendations provided by the RAC and forwards copies of them to the BLM’s Washington Office, which fully considers them in decisions regarding public lands and resources. If the RAC is concerned that it’s advice is being arbitrarily disregarded, the RAC may request that the Secretary respond directly to such concerns within 60 days of receipt. Such a request can be made only by unanimous agreement of the RAC members. If the Secretary asks a RAC to examine a particular issue, the DFO reviews the recommendations and sends them (through the BLM Director) to the Secretary.
