developed outdoor recreation, off-highway vehicle users, or commercial
recreation activities; representatives of the commercial timber
industry; or representatives of energy and mineral development.

recognized environmental organizations; representatives of dispersed
recreational activities; representatives of archaeological and
historical interests; or representatives of nationally or regionally

responsible for the management of natural resources; representatives of
Indian Tribes within or adjacent to the area for which the RAC is
organized; academicians in natural resource management or the natural
sciences; and representatives of the public-at-large.
