What States do Recreation RACs cover?
The Forest Service and BLM established a Recreation RAC organization that has been approved by both the Department of the Interior and the Department of Agriculture. This organization includes one Recreation RAC in each of five Forest Service regions (Eastern, Southern, Pacific Northwest, Pacific Southwest and Alaska Regions). The Forest Service will cooperate with the BLM’s Resource Advisory Councils for States not included in the above regions. The Forest Service will also use one existing Forest Service committee (Black Hills National Forest Advisory Board) for the Black Hills National Forest. The Secretaries of Agriculture and Interior accepted the recommendations of the Governors of Wyoming and Nebraska not to establish Recreation RACs in their states.
