SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Route 66 Corridor Preservation Program 
Advisory Council was established to consult with the Secretary of the 
Interior on matters relating to the Route 66 Corridor Preservation 
Program, including recommendations for ways to best preserve important 
properties along Route 66, grant and cost-share awards to eligible 
applicants owning or administering historic properties along the Route 
66 Corridor, and technical assistance provided by the NPS to partners 
along the route.
    The matters to be discussed include:
     Committee report on accountability and measurement;
     committee report on education and outreach;
     committee report on preservation management;
     strategic media initiative;
     report on preliminary economic impacts of heritage tourism 
along Route 66;
     report on motel preservation initiatives along Route 66.
    The meeting will be open to the public. However, facilities and 
space for accommodating members of the public are limited, and persons 
will be accommodated on a first-come, first-served basis. The public 
comment period is scheduled from 9 a.m.-10 a.m. on Friday, November 2. 
Any member of the public may file a written statement concerning the 
matters to be discussed with Michael Taylor, Route 66 Corridor 
Preservation Program Manager.
    Minutes of the meeting will be available for public inspection at 
the Route 66 Corridor Preservation Program Office, located in Room 122, 
Old Santa Fe Trail Building, 1100 Old Santa Fe Trail, Santa Fe, NM.
    An exceptional set of circumstances involving the charter renewal 
for this advisory council has resulted in the publication of this 
notice less than 15 days before the date of the meeting. Cancellation 
of the meeting at this time would impose an undue hardship for the 
representatives from 8 different states who have made arrangements to 
travel to the meeting. We believe the public interest would be best 
served by holding the meeting and having the Council perform its duties 
on the scheduled dates.

    Dated: October 15, 2007.
Bernard C. Fagan,
Deputy Chief, National Park Service Office of Policy.
