LOGAN, Utah— The Bureau of Land Management’s West Desert District will host a meeting and field 
tour of the Utah Resource Advisory Council (RAC) Aug. 14-15, 2024, to discuss various issues related 
to the management of public lands in Utah. The public is invited to attend and gain valuable 
information regarding district and statewide planning efforts.


“The input we receive from the RAC is invaluable in guiding the implementation of the BLM’s 
management strategies,” said Utah State Director Greg Sheehan. “It’s through this diverse panel of 
individuals from a variety of affected communities and industries we’re able to conduct a focused
dialogue with the public.”


This public meeting may be attended in person or virtually. The meeting will be held in Logan, Utah, 
with a specific location to be announced at least 30 days prior. Visit the meeting’s website or contact 
your local field office for details on how to participate and to review the meeting agenda. The public

wishing to comment, the amount of time for individual oral comments may be limited.
