SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
The Homeland Security Advisory Council (HSAC) was established in
April 2003, under the authority of title 6 United States Code, section
451, and chartered under the provisions of the Federal Advisory
Committee Act (FACA), 5 U.S.C. app. This discretionary Council provides
nonpartisan and organizationally independent strategic advice to the
Secretary of Homeland Security on critical matters related to Homeland
Security.
The HSAC has made the following three amendments to its charter.
1. The previous charter stated there was one Chair. It is now
amended to provide for two co-Chairs and a Vice-Chair who will support
the co-Chairs.
[[Page 77854]]
2. The requirement that one-third of all member terms expire each
year has been removed. The charter now provides that all member term
lengths will be one to three years.
3. In compliance with Executive Order 14035 on Diversity, Equity,
Inclusion & Accessibility in the Federal Workforce, the amended charter
includes the following language: ``In order for DHS to fully leverage
broad-ranging experience and education, the Council must be diverse
with regard to professional and technical expertise. DHS is committed
to pursuing opportunities, consistent with applicable law, to compose a
committee that reflects the diversity of the nation's people.''

individual in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section of this
