111-11, the Omnibus Public Land Management Act of 2009, March 30, 2009. 
The Commission's current termination date is December 18, 2018.
    The purpose of the Commission is to advise the Director of the 
National Park Service with respect to the historical, archeological,

Hawaiian cultural practices demonstrated in the Park.
    The Commission consists of nine members, each appointed by the

follows: all nine Secretarial appointees will be residents of the State 
of Hawaii, and at least six of those appointees will be native

other four members will represent native Hawaiian interests. The four 
ex officio members include the Park Superintendent, the Pacific West 
Regional Pacific Islands Director, one person appointed by the Governor 
of Hawaii, and one person appointed by the Mayor of the County of
