SUMMARY: The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration gives 
notice, as required by the Federal Advisory Committee Act (Pub. L. 92-
463) of the scheduled dates for the meetings of its Advisory Committee 
on Regulatory Negotiation (concerning the improvement of headlamp 
aimability performance and visual/optical headlamp aiming) during the 
remainder of 1995. The Committee has also adopted a tentative schedule 
for its first three meetings in 1996, as indicated below, subject to 
confirmation or modification at its November meeting. If there are 
changes or additions to this schedule, NHTSA will publish a notice 
informing the public of the changes.

DATES: Wednesday/Thursday, September 6/7, 1995; Wednesday/Thursday, 
October 18/19, 1995; Tuesday/Wednesday, November 28/29, 1995; 
Wednesday/Thursday, January 17/18, 1996; Wednesday/Thursday, March 6/7, 
1996; Tuesday/Wednesday, April 23/24, 1996.

ADDRESSES: Meetings of the Advisory Committee are currently scheduled 
to be held beginning at 9:00 a.m. at the Department of Transportation, 
Room 2230 Nassif Building, 400 Seventh Street, SW, Washington D.C.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jere Medlin, Office of Vehicle Safety 
Standards, NHTSA (Phone: 202-366-5276; FAX: 202-366-4329). Mediator: 
Lynn Sylvester, Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service, (phone: 
202-606-9140; FAX: 202-606-3679).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The listed meetings of the Advisory 
Committee are for the purposes of negotiating the contents of the 
preamble and a proposed amendment to 49 CFR 571.108 Motor Vehicle 
Safety Standard No. 108 Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated 
Equipment that will be issued by the National Highway Traffic Safety 
Administration to develop recommended specifications for adding a 
visual/optical aimability requirement for the lower beam headlamp. This 
would facilitate visual aimability of headlamps and, should this affect 
the lower beam pattern, it might be the basis for a world-wide lower 
beam pattern.
    At its first meeting on July 25, 1995, the Committee adopted the 
schedule for its meetings for the remainder of 1995 as set forth above. 
It also adopted a tentative schedule for its first three meetings in 
1996, as shown above, subject to confirmation at its November meeting. 
If there are any changes or additions, NHTSA will publish a further 
notice.
    The meetings are open to the public.

    Issued: August 11, 1995.
Barry Felrice,
Associate Administrator for Safety Performance Standards.
