SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Decennial Census Advisory Committee is 
composed of a Chair, Vice-Chair, and up to 40 member organizations, all 
appointed by the Secretary of Commerce. The Commerce considers the 
goals of the decennial census and users' needs for information provided 
by the decennial census. The Committee provides an outside user 
perspective about how research and design plans for the 2010 decennial 
census, and the development of the American Community Survey and 
related programs, will realize those goals and satisfy those needs. The 
members of the Advisory Committee will draw on their experience with 
Census 2000 planning and operational processes, results of research 
studies, test censuses, and results of the Census 2000 evaluation 
program to provide input on the design and related operations of the 
2010 decennial census, the American Community Survey, and other related 
programs.
    A brief period will be set aside at the meeting for public comment. 
However, individuals with extensive statements for the record must 
submit them in writing to the Census Bureau Committee Liaison Officer, 
named above, at least three working days prior to the meeting. Seating
