SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The DoD is amending the charter for the

    The E4SAB provides the Secretary of Defense and the Deputy

Secretary of the Navy, with independent advice and recommendations on 
matters relating to the Naval University System, and specifically, the 
U.S. Naval Community College, the Naval Postgraduate School, and the 
Naval War College. The E4SAB shall: (a) Provide advice on naval 
education strategy and implementation thereof, (b) provide advice on 
organizational management, curricula and methods of instruction, 
facilities, other issues of accreditation, and other matters of 
interest.
    The E4SAB shall be composed of no more than 15 members appointed in 
accordance with DoD policies and procedures, who are imminent 
authorities in the fields of academia, business, national defense and 
security, the defense industry, and research and analysis. Not less 
than 50 percent of E4SAB members shall be eminent authorities in the 
field of academia. The Deputy Chief of Naval Operations for Manpower, 
Personnel, Training and Education, the Deputy Chief of Naval Operations 
for Warfighting Development, and the Commanding General, U.S Marine 
Corps Training and Education Command shall serve as ex-officio members 
of the Board, having voting rights and counting toward the E4SAB's 
total membership.
    Individual members are appointed according to DoD policy and 
procedures, and serve a term of service of one-to-four years with 
annual renewals. One member will be appointed as Chair of the E4SAB. No 
member, unless approved according to DoD policy and procedures, may 
serve more than two consecutive terms of service on the E4SAB, or serve 
on more than two DoD Federal advisory committees at one time.
    E4SAB members who are not full-time or permanent part-time Federal 
civilian officers or employees, or active duty members of the Uniformed 
Services, are appointed as experts or consultants, pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 
3109, to serve as special government employee members. E4SAB members 
who are full-time or permanent part-time Federal civilian officers or

government employee members.
    All E4SAB members are appointed to provide advice based on 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 E4SAB-related travel and per diem, members 
serve without compensation.
    The public or interested organizations may submit written 
statements about the E4SAB's mission and functions. Written statements 
may be submitted at any time or in response to the stated agenda of 
planned meeting of the E4SAB. All written statements shall be submitted
