The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) issued a call Dec. 27 for public nominations to fill three positions on its national Wild Horse and Burro Advisory Board.

To be considered for selection, nominations must be received via e-mail by Feb. 10, 2017 or postmarked by that date. The BLM published its request for nominations in the Dec. 27  Federal Register.  

Nominations are for a term of three years and are needed to represent the following categories of interest: public interest (equine behavior), wild horse and burro research, and natural resource management.

The advisory 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 the 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’s Designated Federal Official can call additional meetings when necessary. Members serve without salary, but are reimbursed for travel and per diem expenses according to government travel regulations
