SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The John D. Dingell, Jr. Conservation,
Management, and Recreation Act, Section 1223, directed the Secretary of
the Interior to establish a seven-member citizen-based advisory council
that is regulated by the Federal Advisory Committee Act (5 U.S.C.
Appendix 2) and Section 309 of the Federal Land Policy and Management
Act. The BLM rules governing advisory committees are found at 43 CFR
1784.
The Council advises the Secretary with respect to the preparation
and implementation of the management plan for the San Rafael Swell
Recreation Area. Congress created the San Rafael Swell Recreation Area
to provide for the protection, conservation, and enhancement of the
recreational, cultural, natural, scenic, wildlife, ecological,
historical, and educational resources of the area. The San Rafael Swell
Recreation Area features magnificent badlands of brightly colored and
wildly eroded sandstone formations, deep canyons, and giant plates of
stone tilted upright through massive geologic upheaval and features
numerous recreational experiences including hiking, biking, four-wheel
driving, horseback, canyoneering, and river running. Council duties and
responsibilities are solely advisory in nature.
The Council is seeking nominations in the following categories:
(1) An elected leader of a federally recognized Tribe that has
significant cultural or historical connections to, and expertise in,
the landscape, archeological sites, or cultural sites within the
County;
(2) A representative of motorized recreational users; and
(3) A representative of non-motorized recreational users.
Members will be appointed to the Council to serve 3-year terms.
Nominating Potential Members: Nomination forms may be obtained from

All nominations must include a completed Resource
Advisory Council application (OMB Control No. 1004-0204) <a href="https://www.blm.gov/sites/blm.gov/files/1120-019_0.pdf">https://www.blm.gov/sites/blm.gov/files/1120-019_0.pdf</a>, letters of reference
from the represented interests or organizations, and any other
information that speaks to the candidate's qualifications.
The specific category the nominee would be representing should be
identified in the letter of nomination and on the application form.
Members of the Council serve without compensation. However, while
away from their homes or regular places of business, Council members
engaged in Council business may be allowed travel expenses, including
per diem in lieu of subsistence, as authorized by 5 U.S.C. 5703, in the
same manner as persons employed intermittently in Federal Government
service.
The Council will meet approximately two to four times annually, and
at such other times as designated by the Designated Federal Officer.
(Authority: 43 CFR 1784.4-1)

State Director.
