Time for public comment is reserved on April 29 at 4 p.m. On April 29, the North- east California and the Sierra Front/Northwest Great Basin RACs convene a joint ses- sion at 8 a.m. Agenda items include an update on implementation of the management plan for the Black Rock Desert-High Rock Canyon-Emigrant Trails National Conservation Area. Members of both advisory councils worked with the BLM to develop that plan. The joint meeting also includes discussion of law enforcement issues and chal- lenges, and a panel discus- sion titled, “Increasing Use, Decreasing Means on Public Lands in Nevada and Califor- nia.” On April 30, the advisory councils convene separate meetings at 8 a.m. Members of the North- east California RAC will dis- cuss development of land use plans for BLM-managed lands in Northeast California and Northwest Nevada. They will also hear a status report on a juniper manage- ment strategy, review and comment on a BLM request for California off-highway vehicle grant funds, discuss sage grouse conservation planning, and discuss a draft policy for livestock grazing during drought. The Sierra Front/North- west Great Basin RAC mem- bers will discuss monitoring at the Sand Mountain Rec- reation Area, hear an update on sage grouse conservation planning and hold a voluntary session to discuss a project at Soldier Meadows. Each advisory council is comprised of 15 members who advise BLM managers on the full range of the BLM’s public lands management responsibilities. The Northeast California group works with managers in Susanville, Alturas and Cedarville. The Sierra Front/North- west Great Basin RAC works with managers in the BLM Carson City and Winnemuca, Nev., districts.
