OFFICE OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY POLICY


Aeronautics Science and Technology Subcommittee; Committee on 
Technology; National Science and Technology Council

ACTION: Notice of Meeting--Public input is requested on development of 
the draft National Aeronautics Research, Development, Test and 
Evaluation (RDT&E) Infrastructure Plan.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Aeronautics Science and Technology Subcommittee (ASTS) of 
the National Science and Technology Council's (NSTC) Committee on 
Technology will hold a public meeting to discuss the development of the 
National Aeronautics RDT&E Infrastructure Plan. Executive Order (E.O.) 
13419--National Aeronautics Research and Development--signed December 
20, 2006, calls for the development of this plan. The plan is guided by 
both the National Aeronautics Research and Development (R&D) Policy and 
the National Plan for Aeronautics Research and Development and Related 
Infrastructure that were developed by the NSTC in consonance with E.O. 
13419. The draft National Aeronautics RDT&E Infrastructure Plan is to 
be completed in 2010.
    Dates and Addresses: The meeting will be held in conjunction with 
the 48th AIAA Aerospace Sciences Meeting at the Orlando World Center 
Marriott, 8701 World Center Drive, Orlando, Florida 32821 on Thursday, 
January 7, 2010, from 1 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. in the Crystal Ballroom A. 
Information regarding the 48th AIAA Aerospace Sciences Meeting is 
available at the http://www.aiaa.org Web site. Note: Persons solely 
attending this ASTS public meeting do not need to register for the AIAA 
Conference and Exhibit to attend this public meeting. There will be no 
admission charge for persons solely attending the public meeting. 
Seating is limited and will be on a first come, first served basis.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Additional information and links to 
E.O. 13419, the National Aeronautics R&D Policy, the National Plan for 
Aeronautics Research and Development and Related Infrastructure, and 
the Technical Appendix--National Plan for Aeronautics Research and 
Development and Related Infrastructure are available by visiting the 
Office of Science and Technology Policy's NSTC Web site at: http://www.ostp.gov/nstc/aeroplans or by calling 202-456-6012.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: E.O. 13419 and the National Aeronautics R&D 
Policy call for executive departments and agencies conducting 
aeronautics R&D to engage industry, academia and other non-Federal 
stakeholders in support of government planning and performance of 
aeronautics R&D. At this meeting, ASTS members will discuss the 
proposed structure and draft content (to date) of the National 
Aeronautics RDT&E Infrastructure Plan and receive input to help inform 
further development of the draft National Aeronautics RDT&E 
Infrastructure Plan. The desired outcome of the meeting is to obtain 
facts and information from individuals on the RDT&E infrastructure 
requirements to support the national aeronautics R&D goals and 
objectives related to: Mobility; national defense; aviation safety; and 
energy and the environment.
