SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Administrative Conference of the United 
States (ACUS) is charged with developing recommendations for the 
improvement of Federal administrative procedures (5 U.S.C. 591).
    The Conference has engaged a Professor of Law at Washington 
University in St. Louis School of Law, Kathleen Clark, to research and 
prepare a report regarding whether ethics regulations analogous to 
those applicable to government employees should apply to government 
contractors and, if so, how such regulations should be imposed (the 
``Ethics Report''). A copy of the Ethics Report is available at http://www.acus.gov. The Committee on Administration met on November 3, 2010 
to discuss the Ethics Report and again on December 9, 2010 to discuss a 
draft recommendation on expanding the ethics rules applicable to 
government contractors and their employees.
    From 9 a.m. to 12 noon on March 16, 2011, the committee will 
discuss a revised draft recommendation based on the Ethics Report and 
on the discussion from the first two meetings. A copy of the draft 
recommendation will be made available at http://www.acus.gov prior to 
the March 16, 2011 meeting. This meeting will be open to the public and 
may end prior to 12 noon if business is concluded prior to that time. 
Members of the public are invited to attend the meeting in person, 
subject to space limitations, and the Conference will also provide 
remote public access to the meeting.
    Anyone who wishes to attend the meeting in person is asked to RSVP 
to [email protected]. Remote access information will be posted on the 
Conference's Web site, http://www.acus.gov, by no later than March 14, 
2011, and will also be available by the same date by calling the phone 
number listed above. Members of the public who attend the Committee's 
meeting may be permitted to speak only at the discretion of the 
Committee Chair, with unanimous approval of the Committee. The 
Conference welcomes the attendance of the public and will make every 
effort to accommodate persons with physical disabilities or special 
needs. If you need special accommodations due to a disability, please

2011. All comments will be delivered to the Designated Federal Officer
