Missouri Basin RAC

Established in 2020, the Missouri Basin Resource Advisory Council (RAC) is an official federal advisory committee that provides advice and recommendations on all aspects of public land management to the Bureau of Land Management's North Central Montana and Eastern Montana/Dakotas districts.

The RAC has 15 members, balanced to reflect various interests and users of public lands.

  • 5 members representing commercial uses and users such as livestock grazing, timber, mining, oil & gas, realty & rights-of-ways, off-highway vehicle groups, and outfitters and guides.
  • 5 members representing environmental organizations, historic & cultural interests, wildlife organizations, wild horses and burros, and dispersed recreation.
  • 5 members representing elected officials, Tribes, state or other governmental agencies, academicians involved in natural sciences, and the public-at-large.

The Missouri Basin RAC meets two to four times a year. Meeting locations alternate among central and eastern Montana, North Dakota, and South Dakota communities to allow the public to address the council. District Managers for the North Central Montana and Eastern Montana/Dakotas districts serve as the co-Designated Federal Officials (DFO).
