SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
WOTAB was created under the Federal Advisory Committee Act
[[Page 75088]]
(FACA) in accordance with section 23007(d)(1) of the Bipartisan
Infrastructure Law (BIL) (Pub. L. 117-58), which requires the Federal
Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) to establish WOTAB. WOTAB
will review and report on policies that provide education, training,
mentorship, and outreach to women in the trucking industry and identify
barriers and industry trends that directly or indirectly discourage
women from pursuing and retaining careers in trucking.
WOTAB operates in accordance with FACA under the terms of the WOTAB
charter, filed February 11, 2022.
II. Agenda
WOTAB will complete its review of the discussion notes from the
deliberations concerning Tasks 22-1 through 23-4 and the draft report
prepared by its Report Subcommittee. The Report Subcommittee members
were designated during the WOTAB's August 14 meeting for the purpose of
compiling information from the discussion notes for the meetings and
drafting a report for the full WOTAB to review prior to its submission
to the FMCSA Administrator.
III. Public Participation
The meeting will be open to the public via virtual platform.
Advance registration via the website is required by Monday, November 6.
DOT is committed to providing equal access to this meeting for all
participants. If you need alternative formats or services due to a
disability, such as sign language interpretation or other ancillary
aids, please contact the person listed in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION
CONTACT section by Monday, November 6.
Oral comments from the public will be heard during designated
comment periods at the discretion of the WOTAB chair and Designated
Federal Officer. To accommodate as many speakers as possible, the time

written copy of their remarks for inclusion in the meeting records and
for circulation to WOTAB members. All prepared remarks submitted on
