    The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) gives notice under the 
Public Law 92-463 (Federal Advisory Committee Act) that the possible 
impact of Hurricane Rita has forced the rescheduling of the Advisory 
Committee on CARES Business Plan Studies meeting previously scheduled 
for Tuesday, September 27, 2005, at Waco Campus Study, Waco Convention 
Center, 100 Washington Avenue, Waco, Texas 76702, from 8 a.m. until 6 
p.m. The rescheduled meeting will be held on Tuesday, October 4, 2005,

of Veterans Affairs on proposed business plans at those VA facility 
sites identified in May 2004 as requiring further study by the Capital 
Asset Realignment for Enhanced Services (CARES) Decision document.
    The agenda will include a discussion of the potential CARES 
Business Plan options for each site. The options have been developed by 
the VA contractor. The agenda will provide time for public comments on
