    Notice is hereby given that, on April 24, 2006, pursuant to Section 
6(a) of the National Cooperative Research and Production Act of 1993, 
15 U.S.C. 4301 et seq. (``the Act''), Global Climate and Energy Project 
(``GCEP'') has filed written notifications simultaneously with the 
Attorney General and the Federal Trade Commission disclosing changes in

Specifically, the members of GCEP have, as of September 1, 2003, 
September 1, 2004, and September 1, 2005, amended the agreement between 
them to extend the termination of the project, which currently will 
terminate August 31, 2008, unless further extended. The amendments also 
provided for funding of GCEP and for additional specified projects, 
each of which is within the scope of the purpose of GCEP as originally 
established and notified.
    No other changes have been made in either the membership or planned 
activity of the group research project, and GCEP intends to file 
additional written notification disclosing all changes in membership.
    On March 12, 2003, GCEP filed its original notification pursuant to 
Section 6(a) of the Act. The Department of Justice published a notice 
in the Federal Register pursuant to Section 6(b) of the Act on April 4,
