Note: A portion of this meeting may be closed pursuant to 5
U.S.C. 552b ( c) (2) and (6) to discuss organizational and personnel
matters that relate solely to internal personnel rules and practices
of ACNW, and information the release of which would constitute a
clearly unwarranted invasion of personal privacy.
Procedures for the conduct of and participation in ACNW meetings
were published in the Federal Register on October 11, 2005 (70 FR
59081). In accordance with these procedures, oral or written statements
may be presented by members of the public. Electronic recordings will
be permitted only during those portions of the meeting that are open to
the public. Persons desiring to make oral statements should notify Mr.
Michael R. Snodderly (Telephone 301-415-6927), between 8:15 a.m. and 5
p.m. ET, as far in advance as practicable so that appropriate
arrangements can be made to schedule the necessary time during the
meeting for such statements. Use of still, motion picture, and
television cameras during this meeting will be limited to selected
portions of the meeting as determined by the ACNW Chairman. Information
regarding the time to be set aside for taking pictures may be obtained
by contacting the ACNW office prior to the meeting. In view of the
possibility that the schedule for ACNW meetings may be adjusted by the
Chairman as necessary to facilitate the conduct of the meeting, persons
planning to attend should notify Mr. Snodderly as to their particular
needs.
In accordance with Subsection 10(d) Public Law 92-463, I have
determined that it is necessary to close portions of this meeting noted
above to discuss organizational and personnel matters that relate
solely to internal personnel rules and practices of ACNW, and
information the release of which would constitute a clearly unwarranted
invasion of personal privacy.
Further information regarding topics to be discussed, whether the
meeting has been canceled or rescheduled, the Chairman's ruling on
requests for the opportunity to present oral statements and the time
allotted, therefore can be obtained by contacting Mr. Snodderly.
