The Council’s Role and Membership
The Council was formed and
conducts its operations in accordance
with the provisions of the Federal
Advisory Committee Act (5 U.S.C.
Appendix). It reports to the Task Force
through the Secretary of the Interior or
her designee and functions solely as an
advisory body. The Council advises and
makes recommendations on issues
related to combating wildlife trafficking,
including, but not limited to:
(1) Effective support for anti-poaching
activities,
(2) Coordinating regional law
enforcement efforts,
(3) Developing and supporting
effective legal enforcement mechanisms,
and
(4) Developing strategies to reduce
illicit trade and reduce consumer
demand for illegally traded wildlife,
including protected species.
The Council meets approximately 3–
4 times annually, and at such time as
designated by the Designated Federal
Officer.

particular interest.

meet the membership requirements of
the Council.
