Second Call for Nominations for the Utah Resource Advisory 
Council, State Agency Category

AGENCY: Bureau of Land Management, Interior.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The purpose of this notice is to request a second call for 
nominations for one open position on the Bureau of Land Management 
(BLM) Utah Resource Advisory Council (RAC) because we did not receive a 
sufficient number of applications from the first call for nominations. 
The vacant position is in category three, employees of a State agency 
responsible for the management of natural resources. The RAC provides 
advice and recommendations to the BLM on land use planning and 
management of the National System of Public Lands within their 
geographic areas. The BLM will accept public nominations for 30 days 
after the publication of this notice.

DATES: All nominations must be received no later than October 3, 2016.

ADDRESSES: All nominations must be sent to Lola Bird, Public Affairs 
Specialist, Bureau of Land Management, Utah State Office, 440 West 200 
South, Suite 500, Salt Lake City, Utah 84101.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Lola Bird, Public Affairs Specialist, 
Bureau of Land Management Utah State Office, 440 West 200 South, Suite 
500, Salt Lake City, Utah 84101; by telephone (801) 539-4033 or by 
email: [email protected]. Persons who use a telecommunications device for 
the deaf (TDD) may call the Federal Information Relay Service (FIRS) at 
1-800-877-8339 to leave a message or question for the above individual. 
The FIRS is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Replies are 
provided during normal business hours.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Federal Land Policy and Management Act 
(FLPMA) directs the Secretary of the Interior to involve the public in 
planning and issues related to management of public lands administered 
by the BLM. Section 309 of FLPMA (43 U.S.C. 1739) directs the Secretary 
to establish 10- to 15-member citizen-based advisory councils that are 
consistent with the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA). As required 
by FACA, RAC membership must be balanced and representative of the 
various interests concerned with the management of the public lands.
    The BLM-Utah RAC is hosting a call for nominations for a vacant 
position in category three (description addressed in the SUMMARY 
above). Upon appointment, the individual selected will fill the 
position until the term's ending date of June 22, 2018. Nominees must 
be residents of Utah. The BLM will evaluate nominees based on their 
training, education, experience, and knowledge of the council's 
geographical area. Nominees should also demonstrate a commitment to 
consensus building and collaborative resource decision-making. 
Individuals who are Federally registered lobbyists are ineligible to 
serve on all FACA and non-FACA boards, committees, or councils in an 
individual capacity. The term ``individual capacity'' refers to 
individuals who are appointed to exercise their own individual best 
judgment on behalf of the government, such as when they are designated 
Special Government Employees, rather than being appointed to represent 
a particular interest. All nominations must be accompanied by letters 
of reference from any represented interests or organizations, a 
completed RAC application, and any other information that speaks to the 
nominee's qualifications.
    The BLM-Utah will consult with the governor's office before 
forwarding its recommendations to the Secretary of the Interior for a 
final decision. Simultaneous with this notice, BLM-Utah will issue a 
press release providing additional information for submitting 
nominations.

    Authority: 43 CFR 1784.4-1.
