What subjects does the Council discuss?
The RAC members, RAC chair, and DFO determine which issues the RAC will address. Before each meeting, the BLM publishes notice of the RAC meeting in the Federal Register and distributes it to local news media. The notice includes the time, date, location, and agenda items. Any organization, association or individual may file a statement or appear before the RAC or RAC subgroup regarding topics on the meeting agenda. Topics for RAC meetings may be identified for the upcoming year or before each meeting. RAC recommendations address all public land issues, including, for example, land use planning, recreation, noxious weeds, and wild horse and burro herd management areas.
