SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background: The Federal Lands Recreation Enhancement Act (REA), signed December 2004, requires that the Forest Service and the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) provide Recreation RACs with an opportunity to make recommendations to the two agencies on certain types of proposed recreation fee changes. REA allows the agencies to use existing advisory councils, such as BLM Resource Advisory Councils (RACs), or to establish new committees as appropriate. The Forest Service and BLM elected to jointly use existing BLM RACs in the states of Arizona, Idaho, the Dakotas, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, and Utah. In 2006, the Forest Service chartered new Recreation RACs for the states of California and Colorado, and for the Forest Service Pacific Northwest, Eastern and Southern PO 00000 Frm 00002 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 14953 Regions. The Forest Service is using an existing advisory board for the Black Hills National Forest in South Dakota. In addition, the Governors of three states—Alaska, Nebraska and Wyoming—requested that their State be exempt from the REA–R/RAC requirement, and the two Departments concurred with the exemptions. Members were appointed to the Colorado Recreation RAC in July 2007 for either two-year or three-year terms. The terms for the two-year members will expire July 2009. The Recreation RACs provide recreation fee recommendations to both the Forest Service and the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). These committees make recreation fee program recommendations on implementing or eliminating standard amenity fees; expanded amenity fees; and noncommercial, individual special recreation permit fees; expanding or limiting the recreation fee program; and fee-level changes. Recreation RAC Composition: Each Recreation RAC consists of 11 members appointed by the Secretary. REA provided flexibility to modify the specified membership of the RAC ‘‘as appropriate’’ to ensure a fair and balanced representation of recreation interests. (1) Five persons who represent recreation users and that include, as appropriate, persons representing— (a) Winter motorized recreation such as snowmobiling; (b) Winter nonmotorized recreation such as snowshoeing, cross-country and downhill skiing, and snowboarding; (c) Summer motorized recreation such as motorcycling, boating, and offhighway vehicle driving; (d) Summer nonmotorized recreation such as backpacking, horseback riding, mountain biking, canoeing, and rafting; and (e) Hunting and fishing. (2) Three persons who represent interest groups that include, as appropriate, the following: (a) Non-motorized outfitters and guides (b) Non-motorized outfitters and guides and (c) Local environmental groups. (3) Three persons, as follows: (a) State tourism official to represent the state; (b) A person who represents affected Indian tribes; and (c) A person who represents affected local government interests.
