in accordance with section 309 of the Federal Land Policy and
Management Act, as amended (43 U.S.C. 1739). The BLM is subject to
standards and procedures for the creation, operation, and termination
of BLM resource advisory councils found at 43 CFR part 1784 subpart

Nominees are strongly encouraged to include supporting letters from
employers, associations, professional organizations, and/or other
organizations that indicate support by a meaningful constituency for
