Amends existing law to revise nomination provisions for commission seats.
RANGELAND RESOURCES COMMISSION -- Amends existing law to revise nomination provisions for commission seats.
STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
Currently, the Idaho Rangeland Resource Commission is comprised of five (5) members, all of whom are appointed by the Governor. The Idaho Cattle Association nominates and submits names for two (2) seats on the Commission. The Idaho Wool Growers Association nominates and submits names for one (1) seat on the Commission. And, the Idaho Rangeland Committee is charged with nominating and submitting names for the remaining two (2) seats on the Commission. Recently, the Idaho Rangeland Committee has become inactive, so the purpose of this legislation is to designate other entities to nominate and submit names for their two (2) seats. This legislation names the Partners Advisory Council (PAC) of the University of Idaho Rangeland Center to nominate and submit names for one (1) of those seats formerly nominated by the Idaho Rangeland Committee. The Idaho Rangeland Resource Commission will nominate and submit names for the remaining seat, who will serve in an at-large capacity on the Commission.
