questions may be asked only my members of the Committee, its 
consultants, and staff. Persons desiring to make oral statements should 
notify the ACRS Executive Director, Dr. John T. Larkins, at least five

can be made to allow the necessary time during the meeting for such 
statements. Use of still, motion picture, and television cameras during 
this meeting may be limited to selected portions of the meeting as 
determined by the Chairman. Information regarding the time to be set

would result in major inconvenience.

discuss information that involves the internal personnel rules and 
practices of this advisory Committee per 5 U.S.C. 552(c)(2); and to

unwarranted invasion of personal privacy per 5 U.S.C. 552b(c)(6).

meeting has been canceled or rescheduled, the Chairman's ruling on 
requests for the opportunity to present oral statements and the time
