    SAMHSA would like to ensure that advisory committee meetings 
proceed in an orderly fashion, are conducted in a safe and secure 
environment, that the right of free speech is protected, and that 
the ability of SAMHSA Advisory Committees to accomplish their 
objectives is not disrupted. Therefore, the following procedures 
will be followed at all DTAB meetings:
     Attendees are subject to security screening, including 
identification (driver's license) review, metal detector screening, 
and inspection of briefcases, packages, etc. Each attendee will be 
issued a security badge that must be worn at all times while in the 
building.
     Any interested person who wishes to be assured of the 
right to make an oral presentation during the Public Comment portion 
of the DTAB meeting must register with Ms. Hersh before the meeting.
     Those who have not registered before the meeting will 
only be invited to speak at the discretion of the Chair and should 
submit their request to the Designated Federal Official on the day 
of the meeting.
     Public Comment participants who are designated to speak 
may be questioned only by the Chair or DTAB members.
     Audience members may not present comments or questions 
to DTAB members unless recognized by the Chair.
     Attendees at the meeting are asked to maintain order 
and not display behavior that is disruptive to the meeting (i.e., 
shouting from the audience, loud outbursts).
     We ask that attendees not approach the DTAB table area 
during the meeting without permission from the Chair or the 
Designated Federal Official.
     The DTAB Chair or Designated Federal Official will note 
on the record any disruptive behavior and will ask the person to 
cease the behavior or else leave the meeting room.
