Lewis & Clark County Resource Advisory Committee (RAC) Information
Background
Resource Advisory Committees (RACs) are organized under
the Secure Rural Schools and Community Self Determination Act of 2000.
RAC's recommend projects that benefit federal lands in particular counties,
using federal funds allocated to the counties under this law.
Two RACs cover the Beaverhead-Deerlodge National Forest.
One, the Tri-County RAC, operates in Powell, Granite, and Deer Lodge
counties and covers parts of the Beaverhead-Deerlodge, Helena, and Lolo
national forests located in those counties.
The other RAC is the Madison-Beaverhead RAC, covering
Beaverhead-Deerlodge and Gallatin national forests in Beaverhead and
Madison counties.
Each committee has 15 members, appointed by the Secretary
of Agriculture for three-year terms.
