In general, REA directs the Secretary of the Interior to involve the public in developing recreation fees and requires BLM to establish committees, called Recreation Resource Advisory Committees (RRACs) or use an existing Resource Advisory Committee, to allow public input on recommendations for fee amounts and their usage, and the establishment of new fee sites. Under this authority, the Pacific Southwest Recreation RAC in California reviews and makes recommendations on all BLM and FS fee proposals.

From a google search; do we know any of thse people???

The California Recreation Resource Advisory Committee (RRAC) is a citizen's Federal Advisory Committee that provides recommendations on creating new or changing existing recreation fees managed by the Forest Service and Bureau of Land Management in California.

The California RRAC is comprised of 11 members as authorized under the Federal Lands Recreation Enhancement Act, which was signed in to law in December, 2004.

Recommendations from the California Recreation RAC are combined with other public notification and communication efforts to help the Forest Service make sound decisions regarding recreation fees.
