The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) has announced that it is seeking public nominations over a 45-day period to fill three positions on its national Wild Horse and Burro Advisory Board.

To be considered for appointment, nominations must be submitted via email or fax by Monday, Sept. 28 or postmarked by the same date. The BLM announced its formal request for nominations in the Aug. 14 Federal Register.  

Appointments are for a term of three years and nominees are needed to represent the following categories of interest: humane advocacy groups, wildlife management organizations, and livestock management organizations.

The board advises the BLM (an agency of the Department of the Interior) and the U.S. Forest Service (an agency of the Department of Agriculture) on protection and management of wild free-roaming horses and burros on public lands administered by those agencies. The board generally meets twice a year and the BLM director can call additional meetings when necessary. Members serve without salary, but are reimbursed for travel and per diem expenses according to government travel regulations
