BLM seeks advisory council nominations
The BLM is seeking public nominations for positions on the Bears Ears National Monument Advisory Committee. Nominations must be submitted by October 18, 2024.
Advisory committees play a crucial role in managing public lands. These councils frequently facilitate communication between community members, agency program staff, and local partners, serving as liaisons and a conduit for public engagement.
“Participation in advisory councils plays an important role in public land management,” said BLM Utah State Director Greg Sheehan. “We look forward to receiving nominations for applicants with diverse perspectives and experiences to shape recommendations that will help sustain the health, diversity, and productivity of Utah’s public lands.”
The Bears Ears Monument Advisory Committee is seeking nominations in the following categories:
Two representatives of Tribal interests
One representative each of paleontological, archaeological, and conservation communities.
One representative each of private landowners, local business owners, and dispersed recreational activities.
Two representatives of the public at large and one representative of state government.
