SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 15-member Idaho RAC advises the
Secretary of the Interior, through the BLM, on a variety of public land
issues in Idaho. Their diverse perspectives are represented in
commodity, non-commodity, and local area interests. The Idaho RAC
serves in an advisory capacity to BLM officials concerning issues
relating to land use planning and management of public land resources
located within the State of Idaho.
On May 14, the RAC will tour BLM managed recreation sites. The May
15 agenda items include presentations and discussions on proposed
recreation fee increases within the Coeur d'Alene District and the
Salmon Field Office, updates from the State and District Offices, and a
pre-season fire outlook. The July 11 agenda items include presentations
on renewable energy, recreation, restoration and fuels treatments, fire
status, and updates from the State and District Offices. On October 9,
the RAC will tour BLM managed restoration and fuels treatments sites
showcasing Bipartisan Infrastructure Law and Inflation Reduction Act
projects. The October 10 agenda items include presentations and
discussions on proposed recreation fee increases within the Idaho Falls
and Twin Falls Districts, presentations on restoration and fuels
treatments, renewable energy, recreation, a fire season recap, and
updates from the State and District Offices.
All meetings and field tours are open to the public, but members of
the public who wish to participate in the tours must provide their own
transportation and meals. Individuals who plan to attend and need
special assistance, such as sign language interpretation or other
reasonable accommodations, should contact the BLM (see FOR FURTHER

to give the Department of the Interior sufficient time to process your

and the time available, the amount of time for oral comments may be
limited. Written public comments may be sent to the BLM Idaho State
Office listed in the ADDRESSES section of this notice. All comments
received at least one week prior to the meeting will be provided to the
Idaho RAC. Please include ``RAC comment'' in your submission.
Before including your address, phone number, email address, or
other personal identifying information in your comments, please be
aware that your entire comment--including your personal identifying
information--may be made publicly available at any time. While you can
ask us in your comments to withhold your personal identifying
