SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Southeast Oregon RAC is chartered and

diverse perspectives are represented in commodity, non-commodity, and 
local interests. The RAC serves in an advisory capacity to BLM and U.S. 
Forest Service officials concerning planning and management of public 
land and national forest resources located, in whole or part, within 
the boundaries of the BLM's Vale Field Office of the Vale District, 
Burns District, Lakeview District, and Fremont-Winema and Malheur 
National Forests. All meetings are open to the public in their 
entirety. Information to be distributed to the RAC is requested before 
the start of each meeting.
    Both the January and April meetings will include updates and 
opportunities for RAC input regarding the Southeast Oregon and Lakeview 
Resource Management Plan Amendment processes; discussion on rangeland 
and grazing, and wild horse and burro herd management areas; review of 
and/or recommendations regarding proposed actions by the Burns, Vale, 
or Lakeview BLM Districts; and any other business that may reasonably 
come before the RAC. At the January meeting, the RAC will have a 
discussion on commercial and dispersed recreation and opportunities for 
maintaining and enhancing public land access. Topics for the April 
meeting include discussions on programmatic environmental impact 
statements and categorical exclusions and how they relate to land 
management in eastern Oregon.
    As noted earlier (see DATES), the public may address the Southeast 
Oregon RAC during the public comment portion of the meeting on January

other personal identifying information in your comments, please 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 we will be able to 
do so.
