Bear Valley National Wildlife Refuge
was established in 1978 under the
authority of the Endangered Species Act
to protect a major night roost site for
wintering bald eagles in Southern
Oregon. The refuge consists of 4,200
acres, primarily of old growth
ponderosa pine, incense cedar, and
white and Douglas fir. Bear Valley
National Wildlife Refuge also provides
nesting habitat for several bald eagle
pairs.
Clear Lake National Wildlife Refuge
was established by President William
Taft in 1911 as a ‘‘preserve and breeding
ground for native birds’’ (Executive
Order 1332). Located in northeastern
California, the Refuge consists of
approximately 20,000 acres of open
water surrounded by over 26,000 acres
of upland bunchgrass, low sagebrush,
and juniper habitat. Small, rocky islands
in the lake provide nesting sites for
American white pelicans, doublecrested cormorants, and other colonial
nesting birds.
The Klamath Basin Refuges consist of
a variety of habitats, including
freshwater marshes, open water, grassy
meadows, coniferous forests, sagebrush
and juniper grasslands, agricultural
lands, and rocky cliffs and slopes. These
habitats support diverse and abundant
populations of resident and migratory
wildlife, with 433 species having been
observed on or near the Refuges. In
addition, each year the Refuges serve as
a migratory stopover for about threequarters of the Pacific Flyway
waterfowl, with peak fall concentrations
of over 1 million birds.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The

lands and Coos Bay Wagon Road grant
lands. Committees consist of 15 local

interests.
The RACs provide a mechanism for
local community collaboration with
Federal land managers as they select
projects to be conducted on Federal
lands or that will benefit resources on
Federal lands using funds under Title II
of the Act.
Committee membership must be

training, and experience relating to land
use issues and knowledge of the
geographical area of the Committee.
Nominees must also demonstrate a
commitment to collaborative resource
decision-making. The Obama
Administration prohibits individuals
who are currently Federally registered
lobbyists from serving on all Federal
