SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 12-member council advises the Secretary 
of the Interior, through the BLM, on a variety of planning and 
management issues associated with public land management in the Central 
California District, which includes the Bishop, Bakersfield, Hollister, 
Ukiah and Mother Lode Field Offices.
    The meeting will include consideration by the RAC of proposed 
campground fee increases for the Bishop Field Office. The RAC charter 
states:
    Upon the request of the Designated Federal Official (DFO), the 
Council may make recommendations regarding a standard amenity 
recreation fee or an expanded recreation amenity fee, whenever the 
recommendations related to public concerns in the State or region 
covered by the council regarding:
    (A) The implementation of a standard amenity recreation fee or an 
expanded amenity recreation fee or the establishment of a specific 
recreation fee site;
    (B) The elimination of a standard amenity recreation fee or an 
expanded amenity recreation fee; or
    (C) The expansion or limitation of the recreation fee program.
    The Council may make these recommendations for the BLM when the 
BLM's amenity recreation fees are at issue and it would facilitate 
implementation of the REA (Federal Lands Recreation Enhancement Act). 
With the concurrence of the Forest Service (FS) when their amenity 
recreation fees are at issue, the Council may also make these 
recommendations for the BLM and/or FS if that would facilitate the 
effective implementation of the REA.
    The RAC will meet from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. There will be a 
presentation on the fee proposal at 8:30 a.m. There will be a time for 
public comment on that and other issues from 9 a.m. to 10 a.m.
    Information on the proposed fee increase is available on the web at 
http://www.blm.gov/ca/st/en/fo/bishop.html.
    Additional ongoing business will be discussed by the council. All 
meetings are open to the public. Members of the public may present 
written comments to the council. Each formal council meeting will have 
time allocated for public comments. Depending on the number of persons 
wishing to speak, and the time available, the time for individual 
comments may be limited. The meeting is open to the public. Individuals 
who plan to attend and need special assistance, such as sign language 
interpretation and other reasonable accommodations, should contact the 
BLM as provided above.
