organizations. It is anticipated that the STC members will participate 
in six 2-day meetings over a 9-month time period with the goal of

January 2010. Travel expenses and per diem will be reimbursed for all 
STC meetings; however, participation time will not be funded.
    NIJ is seeking representatives from (1) certification bodies and 
(2) test laboratories with experience in programs for similar types of 
electronic equipment. Additional preferred knowledge includes 
experience with in-car video systems or experience with law enforcement 
operations. There are up to four positions to be filled on the STC, and 
NIJ will accept the first 20 submissions for review.
    Interested parties are requested to nominate individuals from their 
organizations and submit no more than two pages describing the 
nominee's applicable experience, preferred knowledge, and affiliations 
with standards development organizations. This information shall be
