SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction 
Act of 1995, we provide the general public and other Federal agencies 
with an opportunity to comment on new, proposed, revised, and 
continuing collections of information. This helps us assess the impact 
of our information collection requirements and minimize the public's 
reporting burden. It also helps the public understand our information 
collection requirements and provide the requested data in the desired 
format. A Federal Register notice with a 60-day public comment period 
soliciting comments on this collection of information was published on 
April 11, 2018. No comments were received.
    We are again soliciting comments on the proposed ICR that is 
described below. We are especially interested in public comment 
addressing the following issues: (1) Is the collection necessary to the 
proper functions of the BLM; (2) will this information be processed and 
used in a timely manner; (3) is the estimate of burden accurate; (4) 
how might the BLM enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the 
information to be collected; and (5) how might the BLM minimize the 
burden of this collection on the respondents, including through the use 
of information technology.
    Comments that you submit in response to this notice are a matter of 
public record. Before including your address, phone number, email 
address, or other personal identifying information in your comment, you 
should be aware that your entire comment--including your personal 
identifying information--may be made publicly available at any time. 
While you can ask us in your comment to withhold your personal 
identifying information from public review, we cannot guarantee that we 
will be able to do so.
    Abstract: This control number consists of one information 
collection activity. In an application form, the BLM seeks to collect 
information to determine education, training, and experience related to 
possible service on advisory committees established under the authority 
of Section 309 of the Federal Land Policy and Management Act (43 U.S.C. 
1739), the Federal Advisory Committee Act, 5 U.S.C. App. 2, and 43 CFR 
subpart 1784. The BLM refers to such advisory committees as Resource 
Advisory Councils (RACs).

    The information that the BLM collects is necessary to ensure that 
each RAC is structured to provide fair membership balance, as 
prescribed by each RAC's charter.
