Sunshine Act; Notice of Virtual Public Forum for EAC Board of 
Advisors

DATE & TIME: Monday, February 8, 2010, 9 a.m. EST through Friday, 
February 19, 2010, 9 p.m. EST.

PLACE: EAC Board of Advisors Virtual Meeting Room at http://www.eac.gov. Once at the main page of EAC's Web site, viewers should

virtual meeting room will open on Monday, February 8, 2010, at 9 a.m.

PURPOSE: The EAC Board of Advisors will review and provide comment on 
Phase II of the Election Operations Assessment. Phase II of the 
Election Operations Assessment contains threat trees for the seven 
types of voting types covered by the Election Operations Assessment. 
These threat trees are intended to capture risks to the various types 
of voting systems and the possible mitigations. These threat trees feed 
into the Risk Assessment tool that will be used by the EAC and NIST in 
their work with the Voluntary Voting System Guidelines.
    The EAC Board of Advisors Virtual Meeting Room was established to 
enable the Board of Advisors to conduct business in an efficient manner 
in a public forum, including being able to review and discuss draft 
documents, when it is not feasible for an in-person board meeting. The 
Board of Advisors will not take any votes or propose any resolutions 
during the 12-day forum of February 8-February 19, 2010. Members will 
post comments about Phase II of the Election Operations Assessment.
    This activity is open to the public. The public may view the 
proceedings of this special forum by visiting the EAC Board of Advisors 
virtual meeting room at http://www.eac.gov at any time between Monday, 
February 8, 2010, 9 a.m. EST and Friday, February 19, 2010, 9 p.m. EST. 
The public also may view Phase II of the election operations 
assessment, which will be posted on EAC's Web site beginning February 
8, 2010. The public may file written statements to the EAC Board of 
Advisors at [email protected]. Data on EAC's Web site is 
accessible to visitors with disabilities and meets the requirements of
