SUMMARY: The Department of Defense (DoD) is publishing this notice to 
announce that it is renewing the charter for the Chief of Engineers 
Environmental Advisory Board (``the Board'').

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Jim Freeman, Advisory Committee 
Management Officer for the Department of Defense, 703-692-5952.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Board's charter is being renewed in 
accordance with the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA) of 1972 (5 
U.S.C., Appendix, as amended) and 41 CFR 102-3.50(d). The Board's 
charter and contact information for the Board's Designated Federal 
Officer (DFO) can be found at http://www.facadatabase.gov/.
    The Board provides the Secretary of Defense and the Deputy 
Secretary of Defense, through the Secretary of the Army, the Assistant 
Secretary of the Army (Civil Works), and the Chief of Engineers, 
independent advice and recommendations on matters related to the two 
distinct component programs of the United States Corps of Engineers--
the Military Program, which supports Army war fighters, and the Civil 
Works Program, which manages many of the water resources of the Nation.
    The Board is composed of no more than 10 members who are eminent 
authorities in the fields of natural (e.g., biology, ecology), social 
(e.g., anthropology, community planning), and related sciences. All 
members of the Board are appointed to provide advice on behalf of the 
Government on the basis of their best judgment without representing any 
particular point of view and in a manner that is free from conflict of 
interest. Except for reimbursement of official Board-related travel and 
per diem, Board members serve without compensation.
    The public or interested organizations may submit written 
statements to the Board membership about the Board's mission and 
functions. Written statements may be submitted at any time or in 
response to the stated agenda of planned meeting of the Board. All 
written statements shall be submitted to the DFO for the Board, and 
this individual will ensure that the written statements are provided to 
the membership for their consideration.
