Resource Advisory Councils
When you get involved with our Resource Advisory Councils (RACs) and advisory committees, you can help in the BLM’s mission to sustain the health, diversity, and productivity of America’s public lands for the use and enjoyment of present and future generations.
The BLM maintains chartered advisory councils primarily located in the West. These include statewide and regional RACs, advisory committees affiliated with specific sites on the BLM’s National Conservation Lands, and the National Wild Horse and Burro Advisory Board.
Advisory committees are invaluable to the BLM because consensus-driven recommendations often lead to sustainable outcomes that benefit natural resources and often enjoy a high level of public support.
