a disability needing an auxiliary aid or service to participate in the 
meeting, such as an interpreting service, assistive listening device, 
or materials in an alternate format, must notify Ms. Boothe one week 
before the scheduled meeting date. Although the BLM will attempt to 
meet a request received after that date, the requested auxiliary aid or 
service may not be available because of insufficient time to arrange 
for it.

II. Public Comment Procedures

    On Tuesday, March 27 at 3 p.m., members of the public will have the 
opportunity to make comments to the Advisory Board on the WHB Program. 
Persons wishing to make comments during the meeting should register in 
person with the BLM prior to 2:30 p.m. on March 27, at the meeting 
location. Depending on the number of commenters, the Advisory Board may 
limit the length of comments. At previous meetings, comments have been 
limited to 3 minutes in length; however, this time may vary. Public 
commenters are requested to submit a written copy of their statement to 
the addresses listed in the ADDRESSES section above, or bring a written 
copy to the meeting to be included and posted as part of the Advisory 
Board's record of the meeting. There will be a webcam present during 
the entire meeting, and individual comments may be recorded.
    Participation in the Advisory Board meeting is not required to 
submit written comments. The BLM invites written comments from all 
interested parties. We request that written comments be specific and 
explain the reason for any recommendation. The Advisory Board considers 
comments that are either supported by quantitative information or 
studies, or those that include citations to and analysis of applicable 
laws and regulations to be the most useful in developing its advice and 
recommendations on the management and protection of wild horses and 
burros.
    Before including your address, phone number, email address, or 
other personal identifying information in your comment, you should be 
aware that your entire comment--including your personal identifying 
information--may be made publicly available at any time. While you can 
ask in your comment that the BLM withhold your personal identifying 
information from public review, the BLM cannot guarantee that it will 
be able to do so.
