SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The National Boating Safety Advisory Council 
(NBSAC) is a Federal advisory committee under 5 U.S.C. App. 2. It 
advises the Coast Guard regarding regulations and other major boating 
safety matters. NBSAC members are drawn equally from the following 
sectors of the boating community: State officials responsible for State 
boating safety programs; recreational boat and associated equipment 
manufacturers; and national recreational boating organizations and the 
general public. Members are appointed by the Secretary of 
Transportation.
    NBSAC normally meets twice each year at a location selected by the 
Coast Guard. When attending meetings of the Council, members are 
provided travel expenses and per diem.
    We will consider applications for the following seven positions 
that expire or become vacant in December 2001: two representatives of 
State officials responsible for State boating safety programs; three 
representatives of recreational boat and associated equipment 
manufacturers; and two members of the general public. Applicants are 
considered for membership on the basis of their particular expertise, 
knowledge, and experience in recreational boating safety. Each member 
serves for a term of 3 years. Some members may serve consecutive terms.
    In support of the policy of the Department of Transportation on 
gender and ethnic diversity, we encourage qualified women and members 
of minority groups to apply.
    If you are selected as a member who represents the general public, 
we will require you to complete a Confidential Financial Disclosure 
Report (OGE Form 450). We may not release the report or the information 
in it to the public, except under an order issued by a Federal court or 
as otherwise provided under the Privacy Act (5 U.S.C. 552a).

    Dated: May 25, 2001.
