REDDING, Calif. — The Bureau of Land Management Northern California Resource Advisory Council will hold an informational session via Zoom on Thursday, May 25, from 9 a.m. to noon. The virtual session replaces a field tour and business meeting that had been planned for Arcata.
Council members will hear reports on development of the Northwest California Integrated Resource Management Plan, other ongoing land use plans, completed land acquisitions, and the BLM’s proposed Public Lands Rule.
Managers of the BLM Applegate, Arcata, Eagle Lake and Redding field offices will update the council on key activities in their areas.

Members represent diverse interests including livestock grazing, recreation, off highway vehicle use, wild horse and burro management, environmental interests, Tribal interests, state agencies with natural resources interests, local government and the public at large.
