    Notice is hereby given that, on February 17, 2012, pursuant to 
Section 6(a) of the National Cooperative Research and Production Act of 
1993, 15 U.S.C. 4301 et seq. (``the Act''), Global Climate and Energy 
Project (``GCEP'') has filed written notifications simultaneously with 
the Attorney General and the Federal Trade Commission disclosing 
changes in its membership, nature and objective. The notifications were

in its nature and objectives is that the members of GCEP have amended 
the agreement between them to extend the termination of GCEP, which 
currently will terminate August 31, 2014.
    No other changes have been made in either the membership or planned 
activity of the group research project. Membership in this group 
research project remains open, and GCEP intends to file additional 
written notifications disclosing all changes in membership.
    On March 12, 2003, GCEP filed its original notification pursuant to 
Section 6(a) of the Act. The Department of Justice published a notice 
in the Federal Register pursuant to Section 6(b) of the Act on April 4,
