SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice of this meeting is given pursuant to

    The meeting agendas were published as part of the original notice

26822. The Federal Advisory Committee Act requires Federal Register 
publication 15 days prior to a meeting held in accordance with the Act. 
The original HOGANSAC meeting announcement was published in the Federal 
Register 11 days prior to the meeting due to the unavailability of the 
committee sponsor to sign the notice. Although the meeting notice 
published in the Federal Register late, the Coast Guard Sector Houston/
Galveston made notice to the public via the Coast Guard's Homeport 
notification system, publication of the meeting in trade journals, and 
local maritime publications. All interested parties were made aware of 
the meetings with sufficient time for planning purposes.

    Dated: May 18, 2007.
William J. Diehl,
Captain, U.S. Coast Guard, Captain of the Port Houston-Galveston.
