[QUOTE="bbbom, post: 313876, member: 16301"] Here's a great opportunity to get OHV friendly people on the BLM Advisory Commitees for YOUR STATE! Get the information from your state BLM contact then find people that are OHV friendly to fill the positions! Deadline is April 22 and they will be on the commitee for 3 YEARS!!! An email from the Americans for Responsible Recreational Access (ARRA) [url]http://responsiblerecreation.policy.net/home/[/url] Get Involved! An important opportunity to represent outdoor recreational interests in your area: The BLM has announced openings on several Resource Advisory Councils (RACs). There are openings on certain RACs in the following states: Arizona, California, Colorado, Idaho, Montana/Dakotas, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon/Washington and Utah. These RACs provide advice and recommendations to BLM on land use planning and management of the public lands within their geographic areas. Membership on the Council must represent the various interests concerned about management of BLM lands. Nominations can be made for three categories. Category One includes commercial and off-highway vehicle recreation interests, holders of grazing permits, and resource development interests. Category Two includes dispersed recreation, wild equine groups and environmental organizations. Category Three includes elected government officials, employees of state land management agencies, Indian tribes, academicians in the natural sciences and the public-at-large. Check with your local BLM office (see below) to verify which Category has openings. You may nominate someone you know or you may submit your own name for consideration. Members serve three-year terms. It is a requirement that the nominee reside in the state in which the RAC is located. Nominees will be considered based on their education, training, and experience and their knowledge of the geographical area of the RAC. Additionally, nominees will be favorably considered if they can show a commitment to collaborative resource decision-making. A nomination must include letters of reference from represented organizations or interests, a nomination form and any additional information demonstrating the nominee’s qualifications. In addition to the general requirements of the nomination, each BLM State Office has issued a press release providing the specific requirements for that area as well as the number and categories of positions available for each RAC. Please contact the RAC you are interested in to obtain its RAC nomination form or visit the state BLM website to download the nomination form. RACs tend to meet every other month and sometimes on a quarterly basis. The members’ travel and per diem expenses are reimbursed by the BLM state office. Check with the individual BLM RAC you are interested in joining to verify the specific activities of that RAC. Nominations are due in the appropriate BLM State Office no later than April 22, 2002.
