The two solicited applications will
replace the Council member

member representing wildlife interests.
The new nominations should ensure
that the Council remains representative
of the stakeholder groups and
geographical areas with an interest in
the management of the D–E NCA, as
mandated by the Omnibus Public Lands
Management Act of 2009 (Act). Any
individual or organization may
nominate one or more persons to serve
on the Council. Individuals may
nominate themselves for Council
membership. The Obama
Administration prohibits individuals
who are currently federally registered
lobbyists from serving on all Federal
Advisory Committee Act (FACA) and
non-FACA boards, committees or
councils. Nomination forms may be
obtained from the BLM Grand Junction
or Uncompahgre field offices or
downloaded from the following Web
site: https://www.blm.gov/co/st/en/nca/
denca/denca_rmp/DENCA_Resource_
Advisory_Council.html.
Nomination packages must include a
completed nomination form, letters of
reference from the represented interests
or organizations, and any other
information relevant to the nominee’s
qualifications. Letters of reference can
be from an organization or from anyone
who is familiar with the nominee’s
ability to speak as an expert on the topic
of interest. Nominations are open to
new and currently seated members. The
Grand Junction and Uncompahgre field
offices will review the nomination
packages in coordination with the
affected counties and the Governor of
Colorado before forwarding
recommendations to the Secretary, who
will make the appointments.
The Council shall be subject to the
FACA, 5 U.S.C. App. 2; and the Federal
Land Policy and Management Act of
1976, 43 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.
