SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Commodity Futures Trading Commission 
(``Commission'') has determined to reestablish its Technology Advisory 
Committee. The Commission has determined that the reestablishment of 
the advisory committee is in the public interest in connection with the 
duties imposed on the Commission by the Commodity Exchange Act, 7 
U.S.C. 1-25, as amended. The Technology Advisory Committee will operate 
for two years from the date it is reestablished unless, before the 
expiration of that time period, its charter is renewed in accordance 
with section 14(a)(2) of the Federal Advisory Committee Act, or the 
Chairman of the Commission, with the concurrence of the other 
Commissioners, shall direct that the advisory committee terminate on an 
earlier date.
    The purpose of the Technology Advisory Committee is to conduct 
public meetings, to submit reports and recommendations to the 
Commission, and to otherwise assist the Commission in identifying and 
understanding how new developments in technology are being applied and 
utilized in the industry, and their impact on the operation of the 
markets. The committee will allow the Commission to be an active 
participant in market innovation, explore the appropriate investment in 
technology, and advise the Commission on the need for strategies to 
implement rules and regulations to support the Commission's mission of 
ensuring the integrity of the markets. Meetings of the Technology 
Advisory Committee are public.
    The Technology Advisory Committee may be reestablished 15 days 
after publication of this notice by filing a reestablishment charter 
with the Commission; the Senate Committee on Agriculture, Nutrition and 
Forestry; the House Committee on Agriculture; the Library of Congress; 
and the General Services Administration's Committee Management 
Secretariat. A copy of the reestablishment charter also will be posted 
on the Commission's Web site at http://www.cftc.gov.

    Issued in Washington, DC, on May 19, 2010, by the Commission.
David A. Stawick,
Secretary of the Commission.
