SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 15-member Western Oregon RAC advises the 
Secretary of the Interior, through the BLM, on a variety of public-land 
issues across public lands in Western Oregon, including the Coos Bay, 
Medford, Northwest Oregon, and Roseburg Districts and part of the 
Lakeview District. At the March meeting, the RAC will review the Secure 
Rural School Title II funding and recreation fee proposal process and 
focus on review of Secure Rural School Title II funding projects. Title 
II funds support restoration projects that may not otherwise have been 
completed, such as the improved maintenance of existing infrastructure, 
enhancement of forest ecosystems, and restoration of land health and 
water quality. In turn, these projects create additional employment 
opportunities in western Oregon communities and foster collaborative 
relationships between those who use public lands and those who manage 
them.
    On April 1, the RAC will visit the Edson Campground and Sixes River 
Campground to prepare for review of potential recreation fee proposals.
    The public is welcome to attend the field tour and must provide 
their own transportation and meals. Individuals who plan to attend must 
RSVP to the BLM Medford District Office at least 2 weeks in advance of 
the field tour (see FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT). Please indicate 
whether you need special assistance, such as sign language 
interpretation and other reasonable accommodations. The field tour will 
follow current Centers for Disease Control and Prevention COVID-19 
guidance regarding social distancing and mask wearing.
    The meetings are open to the public, and public comment periods 
will be held on March 30 and 31, 2022, at 2:30 p.m. each day. Depending 
on the number of persons wishing to comment and the time available, 
time allotted for individual oral comments may be limited. The public 
may submit written comments to the RAC by emailing the RAC coordinator 
at [email protected].
    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
