SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The National Maritime Security Advisory
Committee is a Federal advisory committee. The Committee was
established on December 4, 2018, by section 602 of the Frank LoBiondo
Coast Guard Authorization Act of 2018, Pub. L. 115-282, 132 Stat. 4192
(codified at 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 U.S. 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.
[[Page 64076]]
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.
As required by 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.
Members serve at the pleasure of the Secretary of Homeland Security and
may be removed prior to the end of their term for just cause. In this
solicitation for Committee members, we will consider applications for
two (2) positions:
<bullet> Maritime labor;
<bullet> State and local governments.
Each member of the Committee serves as a representative and 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.
Under 46 U.S.C. 15109(f)(4), its 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 application to <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#782a011916563e56370f1d160b380d0b1b1f56151114"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="33614a525d1d751d7c44565d4073464050541d5e5a5f">[email protected]</span></a> as provided
