SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The National Maritime Security Advisory
Committee is a Federal advisory committee. The Committee was
established on December 4, 2018, by Sec. 602 of the Frank LoBiondo
Coast Guard Authorization Act of 2018, Public Law 115-282, 132 Stat.
4192, and is codified in 46 U.S.C. 70112. The Committee operates under
the provisions of the Federal Advisory Committee Act, (5 U.S.C.
Appendix), and 46 U.S.C. 15109. The National Maritime Security Advisory
Committee provides advice, consults with, and makes recommendations to
the Secretary of Homeland Security, via the Commandant of the Coast
Guard, on matters relating to national maritime security, including on
enhancing the sharing of information related to cybersecurity risks
that may cause a transportation security incident, between relevant
Federal agencies and--
A. State, local, and tribal governments;
B. relevant public safety and emergency response agencies;
C. relevant law enforcement and security organizations;
D. maritime industry;
E. port owners and operators; and
F. terminal owners and operators.
The Committee is required to meet at least once a year in
accordance with 46 U.S.C. 15109(a). We expect the Committee will hold
meetings at least twice a year, but it may meet more frequently.
All members serve at their own expense and receive no salary or
other compensation from the Federal Government. Members may be
reimbursed for travel and per diem in accordance with Federal Travel
regulations.
Under the provisions in 46 U.S.C. 15109(f)(6), if you are appointed
as a member of the Committee, your membership term will expire on
December 31 of the third full year after the effective date of your
appointment. In this solicitation for Committee members, we will
consider applications for two (2) positions:
<bullet> Facilities owners and operators.
<bullet> State and local governments.
Each member of the Committee must have particular expertise,
knowledge, and experience in matters relating to the function of the
Committee, which is to advise the Secretary of Homeland Security on the
matters described above.
Consistent with 46 U.S.C. 15109(f)(4), Committee members are
required to apply for, obtain, and maintain a government national
security clearance at the Secret level. The U.S. Coast Guard will
sponsor and assist candidates with this process.
In order for the Department, to fully leverage broad-ranging
experience and education, the National Maritime Security Advisory
Committee must be diverse with regard to professional and technical
expertise. The Department is committed to pursuing opportunities,
consistent with applicable law, to compose a committee that reflects
the diversity of the nation's people.
If you are interested in applying to become a member of the
Committee, email your cover letter and resume along with the brief
biography to <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#304249515e1e561e5f47555e4370454353571e5d595c"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="90e2e9f1febef6beffe7f5fee3d0e5e3f3f7befdf9fc">[email protected]</span></a> via the transmittal method in the
