SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background: The CINTAC was established under 
the discretionary authority of the Secretary of Commerce and in 
accordance with the Federal Advisory Committee Act, as amended (5 
U.S.C. App.), in response to an identified need for consensus advice 
from U.S. industry to the U.S. Government regarding the development and 
administration of programs to expand United States exports of civil 
nuclear goods and services in accordance with applicable U.S. laws and 
regulations, including advice on how U.S. civil nuclear goods and 
services export policies, programs, and activities will affect the U.S. 
civil nuclear industry's competitiveness and ability to participate in 
the international market.
    The Department of Commerce renewed the CINTAC charter on August 5, 
2020. This meeting is being convened under the seventh charter of the 
CINTAC.
    On November 4, 2021, the CINTAC will hold the fourth meeting of its 
current charter term. The Committee, with officials from the U.S. 
Department of Commerce and other agencies, will discuss major issues 
affecting the competitiveness of the U.S. civil nuclear energy industry 
and discuss a proposed recommendation on U.S.-Canada civil nuclear 
cooperation. An agenda will be made available by October 29, 2021 upon 
request to Mr. Jonathan Chesebro.
    Members of the public wishing to attend the public session of the 
meeting must notify Mr. Chesebro at the contact information above by
