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.
Topics to be considered: The agenda for the CINTAC meeting on
Thursday, August 4, 2022, is as follows:
Closed Session (10:00 a.m.-1:00 p.m.)--Discussion of matters
determined to be exempt from the provisions of the Federal Advisory
Committee Act relating to public meetings found in 5 U.S.C. app.
(10)(a)(1) and 10(a)(3). The session will be closed to the public
pursuant to Section 10(d) of FACA as amended by Section 5(c) of the
Government in Sunshine Act, Public Law 94-409, and in accordance with
Section 552b(c)(4) and Section 552b(c)(9)(B) of Title 5, United States
Code, which authorize closure of meetings that are ``likely to disclose
trade secrets and commercial or financial information obtained from a
person and privileged or confidential'' and ``likely to significantly
frustrate implementation of a proposed agency action,'' respectively.
The part of the meeting that will be closed will address (1) nuclear
cooperation agreements; (2) encouraging ratification of the Convention
on Supplementary Compensation for Nuclear Damage; and (3)
identification of specific trade barriers impacting the U.S. civil
nuclear industry.
Public Session (1:00 p.m.-3:00 p.m.)--Discuss work of the
subcommittees, review of deliberative recommendations, and opportunity
to hear from members of the public. Members of the public wishing to
attend the public session of the meeting must notify Mr. Chesebro at
the contact information above by 5:00 p.m. EDT on Friday, July 29, 2022
in order to pre-register to participate. Please specify any requests
for reasonable accommodation at least five business days in advance of
the meeting. Last minute requests will be accepted but may not be
possible to fill. A limited amount of time will be available for brief
oral comments from members of the public attending the meeting. To
accommodate as many speakers as possible, the time for public comments
will be limited to two (2) minutes per person, with a total public
comment period of 30 minutes. Individuals wishing to reserve speaking
time during the meeting must contact Mr. Chesebro and submit a brief
statement of the general nature of the comments and the name and
address of the proposed participant by 5:00 p.m. EDT on Friday, July
29, 2022. If the number of registrants requesting to make statements is
greater than can be reasonably accommodated during the meeting, the
International Trade Administration may conduct a lottery to determine
the speakers.
Any member of the public may submit written comments concerning the
CINTAC's affairs at any time before or after the meeting. Comments may
be submitted to Mr. Jonathan Chesebro at <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection" class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="b8f2d7d6d9ccd0d9d696dbd0ddcbdddacad7f8cccad9dcdd96dfd7ce">[email protected]</a>.
For consideration during the meeting, and to ensure transmission to the
Committee prior to the meeting, comments must be received no later than
5:00 p.m. EDT on Friday, July 29, 2022. Comments received after that
date will be distributed to the members but may not be considered at
the meeting.

of the meeting.
Dated: July 1, 2022.
