appointed from among individuals recommended by the Governor of Maine; 
(c) four members appointed from among individuals recommended by each 
of the four towns on the island of Mount Desert; (d) three members

Hancock County mainland communities of Gouldsboro, Winter Harbor, and

recommended by each of the three island towns of Cranberry Isles, Swans 
Island, and Frenchboro.
    The NPS is seeking nominees to represent the towns of Cranberry 
Isles, Frenchboro, Swan Island, Winter Harbor, and members at large. 
Nominations received by the park will be sent directly to local 
municipalities for their consideration.
    Nominations should be typed and should include a resume providing 
an adequate description of the nominee's qualifications, including 
information that would enable the Department of the Interior to make an 
informed decision regarding meeting the membership requirements of the 
Commission and permit the Department to contact a potential member. All

and submitted in one complete package. All those interested in 
membership, including current members whose terms are expiring, must 
follow the same nomination process. Members may not appoint deputies or 
alternates.

while away from their homes or regular places of business in the 
performance of services for the Committee as approved by the NPS, 
members may be allowed travel expenses, including per diem in lieu of 
subsistence, in the same manner as persons employed intermittently in 
Government service are allowed such expenses under section 5703 of 
title 5 of the United States Code.
